Bronny James scores just 4 points for the Lakers in quiet NBA Summer League debut

Bronny James made his much-awaited NBA debut on Saturday, but things got off to a slow start. The rookie scored just four points in his first Summer League action, as the Los Angeles Lakers lost to the Sacramento Kings 108-94 in the California Classic.

James played 21 minutes in the loss, adding two rebounds, two assists and a steal to his stat line. However, he went 2-9 in the field, going 0-3 from deep and missing both of his free throw attempts.

James earned his first NBA points with a hook shot in the second quarter, and earned more with a well-placed midrange step back.
