Bronny James continues to be the most important garbage time player in the NBA. The direction of so many television segments hangs on how he performs when the outcome of a Los Angeles Lakers game is already decided and every missed opportunity is a launching pad for a strong take.
So all eyes were once again trained on him during his six minutes of action in the Lakers' victory over the Los Angeles Clippers on Tuesday night at the Intuit Dome. Bronny made his one field goal attempt to finish with two points, but it was his trip to the free-throw line with 5:14 remaining in regulation that will be the lasting image of the outing.
