After the unforgettable entrance of LeBron James and his son Bronny together on the court with the Los Angeles Lakers, the Californian club has made a firm decision regarding the future participation of the 20-year-old youngster in the first team. Thus, Bronny will continue to rotate between the NBA and the NBA G-League, where he could debut with the Los Angeles unit affiliate South Bay Lakers this Saturday.
The franchise that has won 17 rings plans to play all of its home games with Southbay and alternate calls with the Lakers, so the rookie will have fewer opportunities to share the court with his father, a four-time NBA champion.
At the moment, Bronny James has scored a total of four points in three games, including two assists against the Cleveland Cavaliers, plus two more points against the Memphis Grizzlies. His balance of field goals in 13 minutes played with the first team is just 16%, averaging three minutes of play and one point per game.
The Lakers’ desire for Bronny is nothing new, as coach JJ Redick of the California club said last month that this has always been the plan. Thus, the man selected 55th in the 2023 draft by the Los Angeles franchise will have to gain experience in the Development League and earn his opportunity in the NBA.
