The son of an NBA star who's on fire but gets less headlines than Bronny James

Scotty Pippen Jr., the son of Scottie Pippen, Michael Jordan's best lieutenant, a 6-time NBA champion and Hall of Fame member, is having an exceptional season with the Memphis Grizzlies. However, he is completely flying under the radar in the media because there is only room for a star's son: Bronny James.

Let it be clear that we are not criticizing this situation; the talented Bronny has debuted alongside his father LeBron James in the Los Angeles Lakers, and although partly due to the influence of his agents, it has been a historic achievement that continues to make headlines. Today, however, we want to talk about Pippen Jr.'s great season as Ja Morant's backup point guard with the Grizzlies.

Scotty landed in the league a couple of years ago, precisely with the Lakers after going undrafted. He only played six games. At the end of the last season, he signed with Memphis due to a wave of injuries, and this season he has established himself on the roster.

Luxury Statistics

Thus far this season, he has played all 11 games for the Grizzlies, averaging 12.1 points, 5.2 rebounds, and 6.5 assists in 25 minutes per game. He has had 4 games with over 10 assists and has scored in double digits on 9 occasions, surpassing 14 points 5 times. Undoubtedly, he is a crucial piece in the rotation for the Tennessee team. He has earned his spot in the NBA.
