Southbay also played yesterday, and everyone played terrible, they looked gassed from playing a back to back.

Lets just put it this way, the numbers and the way he's playing in the G league, he would not get a call up from any team.

Through 5 is shooting poorly and there is not significant enough impact. However this is the best way he can progress and practice reps he needs to gain confidence to do it at the NBA level.

At the very least before a call up, the Lakers should hope he becomes consistent at 3&D numbers in the G league. If you're seeing not enough 3&D there, won't magically show up in the big leagues.

Best to hope for is a Scotty Pippen Jr. growth over the next 4 years.

Bronny needs at least one year in the G before serious callup considerations.

I could make the argument you would get away with playing him in the Gabe Vincent role without much drop-off.

In JJs three guard lineups specifically.

Different player last 3 games for sure. He’s much more aggressive and looking to attack. Didn’t have a good shooting night but he continues to stay aggressive.

If he's a rotation player by Year 3 of his contract that would be a 90th percentile best case scenario. Anyone expecting anything in the first two years is fooling themselves. MAYBE as a 3rd stringer he could be of value next year

16 PTS, 4 REB, 5 AST, 3 STL in the first showcase.

He looks more comfortable out there.

He really needs to work on that A/To ratio. But that is what the G-League is for.

Completely different player from summer league…

Looks more aggressive and starting to push and handle the ball more. Have to clean up the turnover but thats what the g-league is for.

Is he the primary ballhandler in the g league? I haven't watched a game yet but in the highlights he seems to be orchestrating a lot of the offense. He seems solid at that from what I can tell, it is nice to see him getting more shots to fall. It is good he is playing more and getting more confidence.

Seems like they have him handle the ball more. I remember in the summer league and preseason he was just mainly off the ball and catch and shoot guy.

Weird last game he only took 7 shots compare to previous games.

The last few games he has been on the ball a lot more.

If only he was 6'7 like Zo.
