How many points did Bronny James score against the Warriors?

By Bhavya

The 2024 NBA preseason wraps up on Friday, October 18, giving Bronny James one last shot to get comfortable before the real action starts on Tuesday, October 22.

On the final night of preseason play, seven games are on the schedule, and the last matchup of the night features the Los Angeles Lakers taking on the Golden State Warriors. These two West Coast rivals will face each other a lot this season, and this is their second meeting in the preseason already. The Lakers lost their first game against Golden State just three days earlier with a 111-97 score.

LeBron James sat out during the Lakers’ overtime win against the Phoenix Suns on Thursday, but his son Bronny got some court time. It’s still uncertain how much Bronny will play once the regular season kicks off, but for now, any game experience he gets is valuable for the young rookie.

Bronny has had a bit of a rocky start in the NBA. In the first game against Golden State, he played just nine minutes and scored only two points, adding one rebound, one block, and committing a foul. His shooting wasn’t great, going 1-for-5 from the field and missing all three of his three-point attempts.

So, how did Bronny perform the second time against the Warriors? Here’s a breakdown of his stats, highlights, and results from his final preseason game on Friday.
