His chances are very slim. I watched both him and Lebron's son. Bronni is much better. Zaire assuming he plays the point doesn't penetrate the basket in such a way that would be impressive to NBA scouts, nor does he have that deadly pull up shot, not to mention his defense and he may not ve be physically durable as a result the chances if him getting injured are high. Nevertheless he seems like a good young man who obviously can play, but we're talking the NBA; though l sincerely do hope he makes it, l personally don't think his chances are good. Just an opinion.

He just isn’t meant to play basketball…. Its just not for him. The only reason he even plays is because who is dad is, otherwise, in any other circumstance, he would not be a basketball player. I only feel bad for him because all of the time he spent trying to play basketball, and follow his dad’s footsteps, could have been spent doing something else he loves or is actually good at. That is exactly why i am not going to pressure my kids into doing any extracurricular activities that they dont want to do, or are not good at. Once they find their passion and something they are really good at, then i will push them in that direction and make sure they have all of the tools necessary to succeed… because my kids are honestly my best chance for a decent retirement plan😅

Those stats don’t tell the whole story though. You need to include how much PT he’s getting and extrapolate it over 40 minutes. I doubt he is playing more than 10 minutes a game, so he’s still learning the NBA game, lifestyle, traveling, nutrition, and living on his own, most likely. Give Zaire Wade a break. He’s NOT his dad, who grew up and wasn’t highly recruited until late in his senior year and Marquette was the best offer he received. He didn’t play his freshman year due to being a partial qualifier academically, but improved his game a ton and started showing his skills and basketball IQ and athletic ability his sophomore year. Zaire might be a late bloomer, but he also may not be as “hungry” as his dad was because he hasn’t had the financial challenges his dad faced as a kid, teen, and young guy. Let’s see where Zaire is in a year or two before we check him off as just hype.

Prep school works for some. Plus you factor in Covid19 that messed up California season.

Zaire needs the same growth supplements that his dad was on

He thinks nothing is handed to him but the only nba shot he has is by a team his dad has a ownership stake in 😂🤣😅

[@Vega_Sports]

I disagree, he should of went to South Carolina. Period

[@vernidelacruz7832]

[@myronbrooks887]

There’s nothing wrong w getting another year of high school or going to a prep school. Players reclass and decide to make those decisions based on what they feel is best for them. There should b no knock on taking that chance on yourself. Just cuz you wouldn’t doesn’t mean that player who feels they are good can take that chance at getting more offers. Weather it’s from a big d1 school or not. D1 offer is a d1 offer something millions of players don’t get to play at the next level.

[@dustinmurphy82]

Opportunity to give him a great life? Lmao like he ain't been had a great life since birth. I think that it's way less him trying to give him a "great life" and way more stroking his son's ego by giving him something he doesn't deserve.
