LeBron James listed as questionable against Memphis

From fading shots in the paint to pull-up threes, the jumper showed as much promise as ever. He filled up the stat sheet with remarkable contact finishes at the rim, even letting out some emotion. Attacking the basket opens everything up, Bronny says. “Just getting downhill. It opens up everything for me. Still got to kick down more threes but just staying aggressive on the offense end, and building that energy up for the defensive end.” The handle looks tighter, and you can see the confidence grow—all things you would expect from a player who missed a year due to a cardiac health issue. The Lakers and his believers hope the pedigree and first-round potential returns with every repetition. -via Clutch Points / December 14, 2024

In a ClutchPoints exclusive interview, Bronny discussed how he feels that process has gone. “Yeah, I think it’s good. Just game by game, trying to learn everything I can. Always just staying aggressive. Playing my game. Playing for my teammates and coaches. It’s been good so far” Bronny has suited up in only five of the team’s 15 games, splitting time with the Lakers and South Bay. Following the opening night moment when he and his father, LeBron James, made history, his minutes with the parent team have been relegated to garbage time situations. Those minutes do little to help the basketball player grow. -via Clutch Points / December 14, 2024

Paul Pierce on Lakers: You can trade D-Lo too and get some draft picks and just let them roll. Kevin Garnett: Hell no. Laker Nation ain’t going for that. Pierce: AD is still good so do him justice and give him an opportunity to go somewhere and play for a title because it’s not happening in LA. -via YouTube / December 14, 2024
