Bryce James was in his bag during the contest. His shooting range was on display as he made some tough fadeaway shots and found creative ways to get to the rim. Here's the highlight reel that James posted on his Instagram story:

LeBron James eligible for an extension with LA Lakers soon

LeBron James will be extension eligible on August 4. He is in the final year of a two-year $85 million deal he signed after the LA Lakers won their 17th NBA championship under his leadership. Much has changed since then. The Lakers suffered a first-round defeat in the 2021 playoffs, while they failed to make it to the postseason the following year.

Several years later, James finds himself on a team that isn't close to being considered a legitimate title contender again. The soon-to-be 38-year-old superstar has a limited window to win another championship. This could drive his decision to leave the franchise. However, James hasn't given any indication about his future with the Purple and Gold.

The Lakers need to surround him with a quality roster this offseason. It may improve the chance of James extending his contract. The four-time MVP has played at a high level even at this stage. He remains a crucial component of their hopes of winning another title.

Meanwhile, LeBron James is keen to team up with his son, Bronny James, who will be eligible for the 2024 NBA draft. The four-time champion has expressed the desire to move to the team that drafts Bronny. The Lakers should look to make the necessary moves that will keep LeBron in LA until then.

The Lakers have been linked to Kyrie Irving, Buddy Hield, Myles Turner, and Eric Gordon. They desperately need to add a star player or multiple impact role players to bolster their shot at returning to the top of the Western Conference.
