Bronny James receives special treatment in G League with home game-only policy

yardbarker.com — November 14, 2024 at 02:02 AM UTC

Bronny James, the son of NBA star LeBron James, is receiving special treatment in the G League. He will only play in home games for the South Bay Lakers and will not travel for road games, making him a part-time player. This decision comes after Bronny's recent G League debut, where he struggled with just 0.7 points per game. The Lakers' approach limits his development opportunities, as he will miss half of the G League games and the experience of traveling with teammates. Bronny's situation contrasts with typical G League players, who usually participate in both home and away games. His unique status continues to draw attention as he navigates his early professional career.
