Some have suggested that money could be a deciding factor for Bronny. However, former NBA Most Improved Player winner Jalen Rose offered an opposing take.

While his performances on the basketball court have been a valid reason for his fame, his lineage has been a catalyst in his rise to stardom. As the son of LA Lakers superstar LeBron James, Bronny has received a lot of attention as he has grown in his basketball career. The 17-year-old is currently on the cusp of entering college. With interest from collegiate programs such as USC, Ohio State and Oregon, Bronny is in a good place. Considering the speculation about Oregon being a frontrunner in recruiting the 17-year old, Jalen Rose offered his opinion on the subject on "Jalen & Jacoby". He said: "I'm just going to project here. He's a high school athlete and there's levels to how you cover them and how intensely we cover them. I will say, if I was projecting, the reason why the people said he may go to Oregon - and let me get this right - is because he's going to get a bag? Let me introduce y'all to somebody. His father, named LeBron James. "He is not picking a school for a bag. He's going to pick a school for a lifestyle. He's going to pick a school to play the game he loves. He's going to pick somewhere where he feels like he's going to be happy and grow on and off the floor."
