Tracy Morgan Takes Savage Shot at Bronny James: ‘Bronny Look Like He Got JUCO Ball Written All Over Him
The New York Knicks finally got their banner night, celebrating the end of a 53-year championship drought, but the vibe at the Garden turned spicy real quick. Comedian and lifelong Knicks fan Tracy Morgan used the occasion to roast LeBron James’ son, Bronny, knowing full well that LeBron chose the Philadelphia 76ers over New York this offseason.
During the banner ceremony, Morgan didn’t hold back. Looking right at Bronny, he cracked a joke that had Carmelo Anthony and the crowd rolling: “Bronny look like he got JUCO ball written all over him.” He followed it up with, “I just wanna say what I feel. What you want?” Clearly aiming to get under LeBron’s skin before tip-off.
If LeBron heard the jokes, he didn’t let it rattle him. He went to work on the court, putting up a stat sheet that showed his all-around impact: 14 points, 7 assists, 9 rebounds, a steal, and a block. He saved his best for the end, locking down Mikal Bridges with a massive block late and hitting the game-sealing free throws. Tyrese Maxey stole the show with a game-high 28 points, while Jaylen Brown added 19 and Joel Embiid chipped in 13 points, 11 rebounds, and 3 blocks. The 76ers put together a balanced performance to spoil the Knicks’ big night with a 106-00 win in front of a hostile crowd.
