Rookie Bronny James will be sitting out of Sunday's California Classic summer league game in San Francisco due to trace swelling in his left knee, as confirmed by a Los Angeles Lakers spokesperson to ESPN. This precautionary measure is being taken to ensure James' health and well-being.
James is expected to return to the court for the Lakers' final Classic game against the Miami Heat on Wednesday. In his summer league debut against the Sacramento Kings, the No. 55 pick in last month's draft scored four points on 2-of-9 shooting in 22 minutes of play.
