Los Angeles Lakers rookie guard Bronny James, the son of superstar LeBron James, has played in four games this season, including during Wednesday's loss to the Memphis Grizzlies. But now he will be moving to a new phase of his basketball career — a developmental phase.

On Thursday, Nov. 7, the Lakers franchise announced that the rookie son of NBA star LeBron James will join the South Bay roster, the team confirmed on X (formerly Twitter). Bronny, 20, is set to make his debut on Saturday, during South Bay's first game against the Salt Lake City Stars at the UCLA Health Training Center in El Segundo, Calif.
