NBA fans everywhere are reacting to Jeff Teague’s statements about Bronny James and Dalton Knecht. Teague appeared on the Club 520 Podcast, where he questioned why Knecht was in the G-League, while James is playing with the Lakers.
Of course, Teague’s remarks were not taken so well, especially by many fans who pointed out that Bronny James also played in the G-League with Knecht. Knecht is a first-round pick, but Bronny has also managed to make an impression of his own in the league.
“Jeff Teague wants to know why Dalton Knecht is in the G League instead of Bronny James ‘No disrespect to Bronny but like, Knecht was a 1st round pick’” NBA_Courtside tweeted, sharing Jeff Teague’s statements.

“Lol…Bronny literally played in the G-LEAGUE game Knecht got that dunk in. Clearly no research is being done and knowledge isn’t being applied. Just because you’re on tv or a big platform doesn’t mean you know that you’re talking about.” One fan reacted.
“If he watched he’d know dk need ts rn we gotta wake him up but he’s constantly being cheeks JJ was giving 30 mins nightly summer league and he couldn’t get it going not even once,” another fan added.
“Y’all gotta stop getting on here and running with what y’all see & do our own research. People behind the camera literally informed him bronny played as well and he apologized for assuming.” One more fan trolled Teague.
NBA Fans Continue To Take Shots At Jeff Teague For Dalton Knecht Remarks
NBA fans are not letting Jeff Teague forget this blunder easily and have been calling out the player pretty hard on social media, for making the incredible mistake in assuming that only Dalton Knecht is part of the G-League and not Bronny James. However, many also feel that Bronny is getting more opportunities because of his dad, LeBron James.
“Don’t talk about Bronny..that really makes grown man cry.” One fan said.

“Because daddy would cry if he was,” another fan remarked.
“I was on the Bronny train at first he should NEVER play over Nick Smith and Knecht,” one more fan added.
Ever since Bronny James has come into the league, there have been many cries about nepotism. This became even louder after the player was not that impressive in his appearances, unlike his own father of course.
