During the Lakers’ last preseason game against the Golden State Warriors, Bronny James played one of his best games, proving he belongs on the main team despite criticism. But it wasn’t just his game that got attention; Stephen Curry gave him a heartfelt hug and valuable advice, which also got a lot of attention from the community.
Neither Stephen Curry nor LeBron James played in the recent Lakers vs. Warriors game. In fact, none of the main Lakers players played; Coach JJ Redick wanted to see how the young stars would do against a pro team. As expected, the Lakers lost by 58 points.
Curry, despite not playing, observed the rookie Lakers from the bench. After Quincy Olivari shared a tearful confession, Steph’s emotional interaction with Olivari became a topic of conversation.
Fans were also surprised when Curry hugged Bronny James and whispered something in his ear for a long time. This made the media curious about what advice Stephen Curry was giving to LeBron’s son, especially since Bronny nodded, showing he was learning something special.
Bronny James reveals what advice Stephen Curry gave him
After a strong showing in the Lakers’ final preseason game against the Warriors, Bronny James shared the advice he got from his idol, Stephen Curry. After scoring his first-ever 17 points in the preseason, Bronny had a heartfelt chat with Curry afterward.
In a press conference, Bronny explained, “Just catching up but mainly just, you know, him telling me to play, play my game and be myself. Also just giving some pointers on things to do in certain situations but nothing, nothing too crazy.”
When asked about his productive night, the Lakers rookie said, “It just gave me a chance to be myself, I feel like that’s where I’m the most comfortable just going out there and playing my game.”
