Bronny James got real rotational minutes for the first time this season in the Los Angeles Lakers’ loss to the Philadelphia 76ers on Tuesday night. Bronny played 15 minutes, some of them alongside LeBron James, but struggled to find his footing.
He finished with zero points on 0-for-5 from the field, had three rebounds, an assist and a block, but also turned the ball over three times.
It would have been difficult to expect fireworks from Bronny when this is the first time he’s seen real minutes at the NBA level. He has shown significant strides in the G League over the last month, but it’s clear that more work needs to be done before he can be with the Lakers on a regular basis.
