LAS VEGAS — Bronny James struggled from the field again Monday, finishing 1 for 5 in the Los Angeles Lakers’ 88-74 loss to the Boston Celtics at NBA Summer League.

James played 25 minutes, finishing with two points, three rebounds and one assist. He was 0 for 3 from 3-point range and is now 0 for 15 from beyond the arc in four games this summer — two in Las Vegas and two at the California Classic in San Francisco.

Performance Overview

The son of NBA all-time scoring leader LeBron James is shooting 7 for 31 (23%) this summer and is averaging 4.3 points, 3.8 rebounds, 1.5 assists and 1.3 steals.

Bronny James was the 55th overall pick in last month’s draft and the Lakers — who have said he will be a focus of their player development program — signed him to a four-year deal. If he and LeBron James play together in a game, they would be the first father-son combination to appear simultaneously in NBA history.
