Bronny James has appeared in four games for the Los Angeles Lakers so far this season.
Following limited playing time, the Lakers have assigned the former USC guard to the G League.
ESPN’s Shams Charania reports that he will be on the Lakers’ roster for Friday’s game but will play in the G League on Saturday.
After the news came out, former NBA starter Chandler Parsons spoke about Bronny (via FanDuel TV’s Run It Back).
Parsons: “The tough and the good part is he’s gonna get everyone’s best shot even in the G League. You know kids are gonna go at him; they’re going to want to prove a point. They are going to want to go at him every opportunity they get. This is a great opportunity for him to go prove himself. Prove himself to yourself, to the world, to the media that you are worthy that you can be a valuable asset on the Los Angeles Lakers as early as this year.”
Bronny is averaging 1.0 points per contest while shooting 16.7% from the field in his first four games.
He is only averaging 3.2 minutes of playing time per contest.
The Lakers are 4-4 in their first eight games of the new season.
They will host the Philadelphia 76ers on Friday in Los Angeles.
Via Arash Markazi of The Sporting Tribune: “Bronny James will make his debut for the South Bay Lakers of the G League on Saturday against the Salt Lake City Stars. Tickets for the game are sold out and the cheapest ticket on the secondary market is $200.”
