Not much is known about Barron Trump, the son of Donald Trump and Melania Trump, largely because Barron was out of the spotlight during his father's tenure as the U.S. **. But every time he shows up, fans immediately notice something: as a teenager, Barron quickly surpassed his parents in height, so much so that sports fans are now begging him to do something.
Back in 2016, Barron's mother, Melania, had spoken publicly about her son and his future ambitions. She told People magazine, "He wanted to be a golfer, a businessman and a pilot. It is at this age that you have to introduce something to him. ”
Well, even if Barron eventually followed in his father's footsteps and became a businessman, there are those who think he should seriously consider pursuing a career in professional sports.
Fans believe that Barron Trump should be a basketball player
Because Barron Trump is currently 6 feet 8 inches tall (and he could still grow taller), many sports fans are almost begging him to become a basketball player. Many even shared comments on X (formerly Twitter) like "that 6'8" boy" and the Slovenian. For God's sake, please put the ball in his hands," meanwhile, "The Lakers need you, Baron!" ”
As for whether Barron plays basketball or not, no one knows for sure. The young teenager was accepted to Cowbridge College in Palm Beach, Florida, but was not on the school's basketball team. But then again, as the child of the former **, there is a good chance that Barron's privacy will be protected. Scott Siegfried, the school's director of progress, told the Palm Beach Post that the Secret Service was tracking Barron at the school to protect him and possibly even to make sure he was doing his homework. "They want little impact on our day-to-day operations," he said. They did this for other ex** kids. They were fantastic. ”
Even if Barron doesn't show any interest in playing basketball, that doesn't mean he isn't interested in sports.
Barron Trump is a golf and soccer enthusiast
Back in 2021, young Barron Trump was spotted having a very special father-son time with Donald Trump on the golf course in Palm Beach. At a rally in Iowa, Donald also admitted that one of the reasons Barron was so tall was that he had spent his entire life eating food cooked by his Slovenian grandmother, Amalia Knaves. The former ** also clarified Barron's interest in sports. He (via the Daily Mail) said: "I said you would be a basketball player. He said, "Actually, I love football, Dad." I thought ......With your height, I prefer basketball, but you can't convince them to do anything. ”
That said, it looks like the Slovenian national basketball team and the Los Angeles Lakers will have to wait until Barron changes his mind about the sport. However, Barron's father did not have a good relationship with the NBA or NBA players in the past, and he called their decision to kneel during the national anthem "very bad." Donald also criticized the league and their continued injustice against society in 2020, telling Fox Sports Radio, "They've had enough politics for people like me." They don't need more ......There's a dirty way to the NBA. The NBA is in trouble. ”
Maybe that's why Barron wants to play.
