LeBron watched the game with his wife, Savannah, and 10-year-old daughter, Zuri, from courtside seats on the opposite side of the main stand. Bronny’s grandmother, Gloria James, was also in attendance, as were Anthony Davis, D’Angelo Russell and Lakers general manager Rob Pelinka.

LeBron and Lakers coach JJ Redick have repeatedly stated that Bronny will spend plenty of time in the G League this season working on his game.

Bronny played in five games for the Lakers, playing a total of 14 minutes and scoring four points. He appeared in the final 1:28 of the Lakers’ 116-106 win over the Philadelphia 76ers on Friday night.

LeBron and Bronny made NBA history on October 22 when they became the first father and son to play together in the Lakers’ season-opening win over Minnesota.

Bronny got off to a good start Saturday by scoring on his first possession and hitting a pull-up jumper 43 seconds into the game.

“I just got a bucket and it got to me and I was just…yeah. I didn’t miss it,” he said.

Bronny’s other basket was a floater in the lane during the second quarter. He also made a free throw in the fourth quarter. The G League has introduced an experimental free throw rule this season, meaning that for fouls outside of the remaining two minutes, when two or three free throws are normally taken, one foul shot can result in two or three points. It’s worth the points.

Midway through the second quarter, Bronny partially blocked Isiah Wong’s layup, but Quincy Olivari grabbed the rebound. Maxwell Lewis hit a 3-pointer on the other side of the court to give the Lakers a 40-28 lead.

Bronny’s debut drew a packed crowd to the Lakers’ training facility, where South Bay plays. UCLA Health Training Center has a capacity of 676 students.

It felt good,” said Scott, who played in 25 games for Southern California last season and averaged 4.8 points. said Bronny, who was drafted 55th overall in the 2024 draft in June after scoring and grabbing 2.8 rebounds. “I’ve seen the buzz for going to the G. It’s a great experience for me to go out and play my game and get a few minutes under my belt.” Just excited. Masu. ”
