The Los Angeles Lakers have had an interesting plan in place for rookie second-round pick Bronny James. Thus far, Bronny has split time between the parent team and the G League South Bay Lakers, only playing in home games for the latter. It’s an unusual situation, and one that has drawn plenty of criticism from some around the league.
One of those figures is Charles Barkley. The Hall of Fame player is one of the game’s most popular on-air personalities today, doing incredible work for Inside the NBA on TNT. Him criticizing a subject is usually him just doing a job, but with his playing experience, there is also plenty of working knowledge of the right and wrong ways to go about things in the NBA.
