Bronny James has been largely ineffective offensively in his many Summer League games, and that continued in the Lakers-Celtics game on Monday.
After playing in two California Classic matches and a Las Vegas gameJames finished Monday’s game against Boston with just two points on 1-of-5 shooting. James is a developing prospect, so it’s unlikely he’ll explode for big points, but the Lakers would certainly like to see a little more offense from their second-round pick.
In his Summer League begins in Las VegasThe 19-year-old had moments of play but also got stuck in the corner for nearly two quarters. That was the case again Monday, with three of James’ five shots coming from behind the arc.
