He will play on the east coast in the National Football League, but Bryce Young was back in California over the weekend.

The No. 1 overall selection of the NFL Draft took in Saturday’s matchup between the Los Angeles Lakers and Golden State Warriors in the NBA Playoffs from Los Angeles. The cameras captured Young in the crowd as the Lakers earned a 127-97 victory in game three after getting embarrassed in game two. People compare Bryce Young’s passing skill on the football field to Steph Curry’s playmaking abilities on the court. Both athletes respect one another’s game, and Curry grew up in Charlotte, N.C.

He is excited that the Carolina Panthers took Young. Young won the Heisman Trophy for the University of Alabama in 2021.
