Lakers, Bronny James and NBA
Digest more
Bronny James is stealing the spotlight from his father, LeBron James, for a moment, but LeBron is probably cool with it.
The Lakers start strong, building a double-digit lead in the first half, but Golden State scores 30 points in the third quarter to take control of the game.
James could make the regular-season roster if LeBron uses his pull to persuade head coach J.J. Redick, but the father-son duo already made history last season, so the younger James will look to prove he is deserving of a roster spot on his own.
Bronny James showed flashes of potential during the 2025 NBA Summer League, opening with a strong performance in his California Classic debut by scoring 10 points, highlighted by a steal and dunk just seconds into the game.
