He’s good for his age but like Gill said I think that’s it. Not saying he’s already peaked but until he starts playing high school where other kids are actually his size and skill level you ain’t missing nothing.

The difference between him and the Lavar Ball situation is the ball brothers actually WANTED to be hoopers and get to the highest level and lavar gave them the guidance and push to get there. This guy looks more like he's forcing this on the kid and guarantee you by the time this kid is in HS he's gonna hate football.

Perfect example of a parent trying to make his kid grow up a lot faster, correcting his son to say the cool answer just to keep an image & hard persona going so his ass can keep cashing in. Goodluck to your future kid.
Jiu-jitsu parents are crazy. They be ready to fight the whole building over a $5 medal.
People are comparing this to LaVar and his sons. But you can tell LaVar actually pushed his sons hard, and told them the truth, and they improved, leading to the confidence he had in them later on to the pros. It's well documented. He actually cared and disciplined his sons, unlike this guy who is just living through his son...

For me the difference is I don’t think LaVar is a bad person. I think he genuinely wanted his kids to reach their potential and succeed in life. That being said, there are a lot of times he kind of tried to hog the spotlight or take credit for the end result, without showing as much respect and consideration for the work Lonzo did.
Every time dad told him to say sum he said it super aggressively 😭😭
Gil…..is right. Don’t use kids for clout. At least let him become a young man with his own identity first.
I have no problem with the dad talking highly and boosting his sons skills (like LaVar Ball), but when it gets to the point of trying to make a character out of your own child and clout chasing media outlets you’re doing way too much..
How do you give the dad props for anything like this, it's sad but there's no way it can end well for this kid
That dad is a psycho. Kids aren’t supposed to be some accessory to your own life story. This guy is some kind of bargain, basement, LaVar Ball.

I think he did a good job preparing them for the league but when you look into what he was doing with BBB and trying to capitalize off of his kid’s successes while limiting their potential opportunities with other brands that were way better positioned to take care of them and invest in their careers… I just don’t like how he always talked about their careers as “his” vision, as opposed to trying to help them achieve their own.

It's also pretty disturbing how this kid is being made to seem more adult than he is. Those podcast hosts shouldn't really be asking this kid about dating on their show. If seen some clips that allude to Baby Gronk being desired by grown women. There's a cringey clip with that gymnast from LSU, I think. None of that is ok. His dad seems like the type of parent who their kid would disown at some point once they recognize the abuse and have some agency.

Every kid will find out what they're special in at some point in their life, if the parents have to let them find what that is; while only guiding them when they need it. I have seen it in my profession time and time again, mostly track athletes. Their parents were D1 athletes, but did not make the Olympics. They are now pushing their child to make it to the Olympics, and it pushed them right into injury. When I would see them, they let it out. They hate to sport. The hate the competition and training it takes. They are only still doing it now to be able to go to school for free on an athletic scholarship. I treatment one for a torn hamstring, who was 16 at the time. She was very close to the Women's Olympic World Record in the 100m and she had no idea. When I told her, she didn't care. All her parents had her do is train. She ran year round. I had a talk with her parents about giving her a break throughout the year, because that over stress will lead to injury, but I told her it has to come from her. I heard through others who attended her school, she did earn a full ride to a D1 University. This was around 6 or 7 years ago so hopefully she is doing what she wants now. Parents have to let up. It's okay if you want to support your child through a sport, but allow them to find love for playing it on their own.
This is what athletes go thru in Cuba and DR, nothing new
Julian Newman football version
U gotta get to a point where u realize it ain't gonna happen. I used to think I was going pro up until high school when reality set in. Yes when I was young I was always taller then all the kids and better athlete but everyone catches u later in life
I was bigger than everybody at 10... after 12 i was 5'10... then my moms genes took over.. never grew an inch after that.. stay humble

Lavar and the ball family were original. Their names became synonymous with clout because the only thing they did was promote their ACTUAL names and games. Say what you will, but Lamar knew how to both market and be a father/coach. He never did anything that his kids didn't want for themselves. Making your son gain clout off of a WHOLE PROFESSIONAL'S name not only places unreal expectations on him, but opens the door to the satire if he fails. It's sad that i know of "baby gronk" before i know who this kid actually is.

The dad is litterly building this "reputation" on thin ice. All its gonna take is a few clips of this kid getting flattened by a few high schoolers and he's done. Its easy to run over 10 year olds when your a big 10 year old, how ever try doing that when all the people on the field have either caught up to or surpassed you in size. Lavar ball was different. Yes he was the driving force behind their fame and may have been trying to live vicariously through his kids, but they did have the talent to back up their dad's mouth. They also all wanted to play pro basketball as a career not be internet famous, so when they had to stand on their own against the NBA, they were able to hold their own in most cases and prove they weren't all hype and had skill
