The special treatment LeBron’s son Bronny has been receiving has rubbed a few people the wrong way, and not just in NBA circles.

Bronny was demoted to the Lakers’ G League affiliate, the South Bay Lakers, recently, but he will only participate in the team’s home games, rather than travelling with the team for away games as well, like a regular player.

Former NFL safety Ryan Clark thinks that James — who has accomplished very little at the NBA level to this point — should be “begging” to be able to travel with the G League squad.

“As far as Bronny James not traveling with the team on road games and…you sayin’, ‘Well, they stay at the Courtyard Marriott,’ what has Bronny James done that he shouldn’t be able to stay at the Courtyard Marriott?”

Clark said on The Pivot. “You say, ‘Well, they fly commercial.’ What has Bronny James done where he should be too good to fly commercial?

“The pros isn’t about where you came from, how you were raised, what your parents had. Professional sports is about how well you can contribute, and you don’t get treated differently because of your parents. You get treated differently because of your ability to contribute.

“And if I’m Bronny James…I’m begging Rich Paul. I’m begging J.J. Redick. I’m begging my father, ‘Please let me travel with this team.

Please let me stay at the Courtyard Marriott. Please let me fly commercial. Please let me go somewhere where I’ma get up more than six shots in three games to not only prove it to my organization that I’m worthy of being on this team, but to my damn self.’”
