Bronny James has drawn quite a bit of attention since he joined the NBA. Many believe that LeBron James’ influence helped him get there and due to that, others have missed opportunities. Recently, Al Horford’s sister, Anna Horford, had something to say on the young star.
Bronny has been benefiting from nepotism and Anna said that her “heart broke” to see other players not given the opportunity. She feels that there are better players than Bronny, who deserve an opportunity. While Anna deleted the post on X, she mentioned that she owes no explanation to anyone, especially the Lakers in particular.
The Celtics champion’s sister took to social media to address her previous comment.
“Lakers twitter is dying for me to respond to a comment about Bronny from November. I don’t owe anyone an explanation, lmao. There are so many more important things to be discussing right now. Some of you genuinely need to get lives. Great to hear he’s doing well in the G-league,” Anna wrote.
