Nevertheless, there is still plans for Bronny to make a notable appearance with the Lakers.
“What you’ll ultimately probably see is Bronny James in the first week of the season on the court with his father in a very… I don’t want to call it ceremonial, but the eyes of the world will be on that,” Wojnarowski added.
