Why was Brett Lindros drafted 9th overall?

[WarriorofTime]

I definitely don’t think Bronny is a steal. He wouldn’t have been drafted if his dad wasn’t LeBron who is still a top 10-15 player even in his old age. Bronny wasn’t even that good in his one year of college. Anyone else and he’d be back at school trying to grind it out.

yeah, that was confusing. Bronny is trash and only got looks let alone drafted because he's Lebron's kid and Lebron forced the issue.

He's averaging 1.4 ppg in 4 mpg and wasnt even good in college averaging only 5 points, 3 assists and 2 rebounds per game in 19 mpg

Bronny is doing really well in the G-league for his draft position, I think he is already overperforming is draft place quite a bit. Played good enough for the being called up was legitimate for his play, not his last name, which is good for a first year deep second round.

Yes he would not have been drafted after a cardiac arrest stunted is development without being James kid, but that different than if it will end up better than the average 55th overall.

Look at the career of the 55th overall from 2017 to 2013:

If you ever end up starting a single game in the nba, you are a steal at that position

I'm not sure how anyone can judge Brett Lindros. Stepped into the NHL the year after he was drafted, had just turned 19 years old when the shortened 94-95 season began. He was concussed and out of the game before his 20th birthday.
