LeBron James will be playing his first game of the season without his son by his side as the Los Angeles Lakers assigned Bronny James to the team’s G League South Bay Lakers squad. This move was expected, given Bronny's limited playing time in the NBA so far, with only four points in 13 minutes across three games.
Bronny, a rookie guard drafted in the second round in June, is set to gain more experience and playing time in the G League, where many young players hone their skills. The decision to move him to the G League does not mean he won't return to play alongside his father in the NBA this season.
