Bronny James is set to spend some time in the NBA G League.
After appearing in four NBA games, James was assigned to the South Bay Lakers, LA's G League affiliate. In the G League, James will be expected to see an expanded role for an opportunity to continue his development into a rotational player in the NBA.
A G League assignment is not necessarily a demotion, especially for a late second-round pick. Grizzlies guard Scotty Pippen Jr. and Hornets guard Seth Curry are two second-generation NBA players who used the G League as a launching pad to become effective at the NBA level.
As James looks to hone his skills and continue improving during his rookie year, The Sporting News will keep a log of his performances during his G League assignment.
