Bronny James Stats Tonight (July 6): How did LeBron James' son fare in the Lakers Summer League debut?

Bronny James made his debut in the California Classic Summer League with the LA Lakers. The 19-year-old guard joined Dalton Knecht and other players, aiming to start the tournament on a high note and showcasing his talents against the Sacramento Kings.

After being selected at 55 in the 2024 NBA Draft, James was presented by the Lakers and now made his debut in this competition. The game ended with a blowout win for the Kings, 108-94, as they pulled away from the Lakers in the second half. Led by Adonis Arms, Jordan Ford and Antoine Davis, the Kings had no mercy on the Lakers, getting a blowout win to start their California Classic Summer League campaign.

Arms finished the game with 32 points on 68.8% shooting from the field, while Davis dropped 20 points in 16 minutes, making seven of his 11 attempts. Jordan Ford contributed 17 points, shooting 70% from the field and 75% from beyond the arc, hitting three of his four attempts.

How many points did Bronny James score last night?

Bronny James finished the match with 21:43 minutes, shooting 22.2% from the field (2-9), scoring four points, grabbing two rebounds and dishing two assists. He also added one steal while posting a -12 plus-minus.

Dalton Knecht wasn't the sharpest player on the court, either, as he only managed to score three of his 12 field-goal attempts. He only nailed one 3-pointer in four attempts and finished the match with a -15 plus-minus.

Blake Hinson with 17 points, Tommy Kuhse with 15 and Maxwell Lewis with 14, respectively, led the Lakers against the Kings.
