The Los Angeles Lakers are off to an impressive 2-0 start this season, securing victories over the Minnesota Timberwolves and the Phoenix Suns. This season marks a significant milestone for the franchise, as it is the first time that LeBron James and his son Bronny James have shared the court in a regular-season game.
In their first game, Bronny had the chance to play alongside his father. Nevertheless, he struggled to make an impact, finishing with no points in just three minutes of play.
In the second game against the Suns, however, Bronny did not see any time on the court, while LeBron played an impressive 38 minutes. This disparity has led to speculation about Bronny’s role on the team and how Redick plans to manage the minutes of both players as the season progresses.
As they prepare for their upcoming game against the Sacramento Kings on Saturday, there is ongoing discussion about LeBron and Anthony Davis’ potential rest strategy. Redick addressed the topic, sharing the importance of assessing how both players feel as game day approaches.
“It’s all in real time. How do they feel when they get up on Saturday morning?” Redick said.
For Bronny, the situation appears to be more dependent on Redick’s coaching decisions. While he made his debut in the first game, his lack of playing time in the second raises questions about how often he will contribute to the Lakers’ rotation.
