Bronny James is the son of NBA Great LeBron James, highlighting the 20 -year -old rookie.
In October, Bronny was part of the story when he registered at the opening of the Los Angeles Lakers season and played with his father.
They became the first father-son duo to play together in the history of the League. Shortly after Bronny’s NBA debut, the Lakers announced that he would divide the time between the NBA franchise and his affiliate from the G League, the Lakers of South Bay.
Bronny does not travel with the team for the route games, but was present for the South Bay game against Rip City Remix, the affiliate of the Liga G of Portland Trail Blazers, in the second, California, on January 24. James had a game to remember on Friday, ending the 122-110 victory of South Bay with the best 31 points of his career.

A screen of the Christian Koloko Center allowed James to collect his dribbling and throw the Reel Sprown-Reel overturning on Sterling Manley from Rip City. The overtown also tied the game and caused a 9-4 race in South Bay.
“I’m just trying to recover my trust,” James told a journalist during an interview on the court. “I’m just trying to play my game. Learn from each game.
“While I am not playing in the G League, learn from the Lakers, learn from my veterinarians and keep trying to be myself. That has been working recently. I am happy with my results.

“I’m having fun,” James added when asked about the focus that has been put. “Every time I am playing basketball, every time I am here breathing, every time I am walking here … I am grateful for everything.”

The victory improved the South Bay record at 2-7.
Bronny’s four times NBA champion realized his son’s heroic.
“Grateful for your boy!” The old James wrote in X after the game.
Bronny will probably not receive the call to meet with the NBA team until next month. The Lakers are on a road trip and return to southern California for a match against the Los Angeles Clippers on February 4.
