Bronny James and Lakers fans are enjoying an extra layer of satisfaction with their team's playoff progression. The Lakers advanced to the Western Conference semifinals while the Boston Celtics were eliminated, giving particular pleasure to those who remember Jaylen Brown's comments questioning whether Bronny was a professional player. esporist.com
While Bronny's contribution was modest (12 points and 6 assists across six games against the Rockets), his Lakers are still playing basketball. The team will now face the top-seeded Oklahoma City Thunder, while Brown's Celtics head home after Jayson Tatum's injury in Game 6. The contrasting postseason fortunes provide a satisfying narrative for Lakers supporters.
