Chet Holmgren praises Bronny James for impressive Summer League showing: ‘Looked like a total pro’
NY Post
It may be only four games into Bronny James’ professional career, but he’s already receiving applause from some of the NBA’s best.
On the heels of a 13-point performance against the Cleveland Cavaliers in which he added five rebounds, three assists and two blocks, James was lauded on X by Thunder center Chet Holmgren.
“Looked like a total pro” Holmgren wrote in response to a tweet summarizing James’ outing.
James, who played just one year with USC before entering the NBA draft, churned out several highlights from the game, including a slick step-back 3.
The 55th overall selection has been up and down throughout his limited Summer League tenure, although he’s now stacked two encouraging games in a row.
On Wednesday against the Hawks, James totaled 12 points, one rebound and one steal.

Cade Cunningham, almost inarguably the best player in the East this season, is likely out for the remainder of the regular season. That’s the word out of Detroit following the depressing news that Cunningham punctured a lung when he took a knee to his side Tuesday from Washington’s Tre Johnson while chasing a loose ball.

Wednesday was another positive day at Yankees camp. For the first time since March 6, 2025 — an outing in which he knew “something wasn’t right,” which began a weeks-long saga that ended on the operating table for Tommy John surgery — Gerrit Cole was back on a mound and facing hitters in game action.
