Bronny James took the court on Saturday as the LA Lakers matched up against the New Orleans Pelicans in NBA Summer League action. The matchup carried extra buzz with his father, LeBron James, in attendance at the Thomas & Mack Center to watch his son play live.
Bronny started the game alongside Cole Swider, Darius Bazley, Christian Koloko and DJ Steward. Making his fourth Summer League appearance for the Purple and Gold, the former USC guard continued to struggle with his shooting and was unable to break out of his slump.

Bronny logged six and a half minutes in the first quarter, but his impact was minimal. With the Lakers trailing 9-0 to start the game, it was Bronny who finally got them on the board with a layup off a feed from Christian Koloko. However, that was his only highlight of the period as he went on to miss his remaining three shot attempts.
The second quarter offered no improvement for Bronny James as he took just one shot and missed it. By halftime, the Lakers guard had only two points on 1-of-5 shooting, including 0-of-3 from 3-point range. In his 11:34 minutes, he added two assists, one steal and committed two turnovers.
