Why Lakers assigned Bronny James to the G League
Bronny James has yet to convince JJ Redick of his viability as a rotational piece on the Lakers. His demotion to the G-League proves as much.
The Los Angeles Lakers have demoted their son Bronny James to the G League, opting him out of the regular season. This move came after the NBA franchise reshuffled its lineup due to the debut of the G League's season. While the 22-year-old showed promise during the preseason, he failed to make a significant impact, tallying no more than four points in five games.
Despite his potential, NBA scouts perceive him as a fringe player at the moment. If he can demonstrate improvement in the G League, the Lakers might reconsider their decision.
