Bronny James has been making waves as he kicks off his professional basketball journey.

He made a historic NBA debut alongside his father, marking the first active father-son duo in league history.

Bronny then has appeared in five regular-season games with the Los Angeles Lakers.

While his early performances caught attention due to some struggles on the court, the Lakers have decided to give him time to develop in the G-League.

The Lakers officially assigned Bronny to their G-League affiliate, the South Bay Lakers, where he made his debut on Sunday.

It was a family affair, as his father, LeBron, mother, Savannah, and sister, Zhuri, were all there to support him from the sidelines.

In addition, Lakers stars Anthony Davis and D’Angelo Russell, along with Lakers general manager Rob Pelinka, showed up to cheer on the young player.

As J.J. Redick has revealed, Bronny is expected to spend considerable time in the G-League this season.

It allows him to gain valuable experience and refine his game.

Bronny’s debut saw him register 6 points, 4 assists, and 3 rebounds, along with 2 steals and 1 block.

However, his shooting left room for improvement, with 2 out of 10 field goals made and no success from three-point range, going 0 for 5.

Bronny James’ G-League Debut Sparks Wild Reactions

Bronny James has faced intense scrutiny since beginning his journey in the NBA, following in the footsteps of his father, LeBron James.

From his draft day to his regular-season games, every move Bronny has made on the court has been closely watched and often criticized.

Now, his debut in the G-League is drawing the same level of attention.

Many fans were quick to criticize Bronny’s first G-League performance, with some saying he is still not ready for the professional level.

There were calls suggesting that he should have stayed in college another year to further develop his skills before entering the draft.

Some fans even poked fun at the Lakers rookie and his average G-League debut.

One fan even didn’t hesitate to call him the worst NBA player.

However, Bronny’s journey is just beginning, and he has plenty of time to prove himself.

With his father’s support, Bronny has a unique opportunity to grow his game and continue working toward his goals.
