The Los Angeles Lakers will send guard Bronny James to their G-League affiliate beginning Saturday, per ESPN. James will join the South Bay Lakers after staying with the NBA’s Lakers through their game Friday, according to the report. A second-round pick in July’s NBA Draft, James — the son of superstar LeBron James — has appeared in only four NBA games for the Lakers so far this season. LeBron James #23 of the Los Angeles Lakers talks to his son, Bronny James #9, during a timeout of their preseason game against the Golden State Warriors at Chase Center on Oct. 18, 2024 in San Francisco. After a 3-0 start, Los Angeles has lost four of its last five — all on the road — to drop to 4-4.
