Bronny James made his long-awaited preseason debut for the Los Angeles Lakers against the Minnesota Timberwolves on Friday night. While the debut wasn’t statistically impressive, recording just 2 points, 1 rebound, 1 assist, and an impressive 3 blocks, it provided valuable insights into Bronny’s potential and areas for growth. Following the game, Lakers’ head coach JJ Redick\u00a0shared his thoughts on Bronny\u2019s performance and future prospects.<\/p>\n

“Yeah, as a coaching staff, before the game, we were, as we were kind of going over our final rotation matrix, we were talking about Bronny, and he’s had some really good days in August and September. He’s had three really good days this week. We’re really happy with his progress.”<\/p>\n

“The kid, you know, he can do some things defensively at his size that are really unique and can, I think, turn into a really disruptive defender and that manifested itself.”<\/p>\n

“On the offensive end, he’s still kind of figuring out who he is, and that’s our job as a player development program just to build him up. But I like what I saw from Bronny.”<\/p>\n

“Truthfully, he’s so easy to coach, and he’s got a great soul and just a great energy about him. I like being around him and I’m rooting for him. He’s a good player that we are happy to have in our program.”<\/p>\n
