The Los Angeles Lakers' regular season comes to a close on Sunday, with a Sunday afternoon matchup against the Portland Trail Blazers. Since the Lakers have already clinched the third seed in the Western Conference, the team opted to rest their starters. With the starters out against Portland, Bronny James received the first start of his NBA career.
Ahead of his first career start, Lakers coach JJ Redick graded James for his rookie season, giving him an "A+."
