Rookie Bronny James will be held out of Sunday's California Classic summer league game in San Francisco because of trace swelling in his left knee, a Los Angeles Lakers spokesperson confirmed to ESPN.

Keeping James out of Sunday's game vs. the Golden State Warriors -- the second day of a back-to-back -- is considered precautionary. James is expected to play in Wednesday's final Classic game against the Miami Heat.
