Bronny James, the son of NBA “Superstar” LeBron James, was sluggish with a 13.6% field goal rate in the first game of the Las Vegas Summer League.
Bronny played 26 minutes and 46 seconds against the Houston Rockets in the 2024 NBA Las Vegas Summer League at Thomas & Mack Center in Las Vegas, Nevada on the 13th (Korea time), scoring eight points, five rebounds, two steals, and three turnovers.
The Lakers were routed 80-99 by Houston.
On that day, Bronny shot 13.6 percent from the field. He made only three of his 14 2-point attempts. He missed only one 3-pointer in eight attempts. Instead, he made both free throws.
Bronny is the eldest son of LeBron James, the best active NBA player, and was selected 55th overall by the Lakers in the rookie draft. With LeBron staying with the Lakers, they made history by having their father and son play on the same team for the first time since the beginning of the NBA.
Bronny has been gaining professional experience through the summer league, but he hasn’t been able to show his father’s explosive scoring ability, which holds the NBA’s record for most points (44,744).
In the California Classic, the first series of the Summer League, he played in two of his team’s three games and scored only four and three points, respectively, showing a lack of overall shooting accuracy.
In his first game in the Las Vegas Summer League, Bronny received the most cheers but didn’t leave a strong impression.
The Lakers, however, defended Bronny by saying he was in the process of growing up. Anthony Davis said, “We have high expectations for Bronny. It’s been a great experience to watch him grow with our team.”
