The Los Angeles Lakers have assigned rookie Bronny James to their G League affiliate, South Bay, where he is expected to debut Saturday against Salt Lake City, sources told ESPN.

James will be on the Lakers' roster for Friday's game against the Philadelphia 76ers, then rejoin South Bay, according to sources.

The organization's current plan is for James to play in only G League home games as he shuttles between the Lakers and South Bay, sources said.
