James was drafted in the second round with the 55th overall pick in the 2024 draft out of USC.
The guard has already competed in a Lakers uniform during the NBA Summer League in July, rebounding from a slow start.
James averaged 8.8 points, 3.5 rebounds and assists in four games played.
When will Bronny James be on the court?
The expectation is that Bronny is likely to come off the bench for the Lakers to open the preseason. He did start for the Lakers during the Summer League in July.
