Bronny James is not your typical late second-round pick; many insults and criticisms have been hurled his way, as he’s carrying the iconic LeBron James name while not being close to the caliber of player his father is.

Bronny James may be starting to fight more of his own battles. Video went viral over the weekend of the Los Angeles Lakers rookie Bronny firing back at a heckler during his team’s game on Friday against the Nuggets in Denver.

While the Lakers did lose, the team should feel proud that they were able to fight with so many crucial role players missing. Even rookie Bronny James saw decent game action against the Nuggets. James finished the game by playing 16 minutes for Los Angeles. During that time he scored five points and grabbed two rebounds.
