Bronny James said that hitting shots against LeBron James in practice builds confidence, but hitting shots against anyone is big for him as the rookies gets accustomed to competing against NBA-level talent pic.x.com/m3BniQ7F1e – 2:17 PM

JJ Redick says he didn’t get to enjoy the last chapter of his own playing career. Injuries and a trade marred that. He wants to make sure LeBron James does. “I take that responsibility seriously,” Redick says. espn.com/nba/story/_/id… – 12:37 PM

AD said Bronny hit a 3 over LeBron today, much to the delight of their teammates, and LeBron went down and bullied somebody else on the next possession.
“I’m just honored to be here witnessing it … to me it just means the world to LeBron. It’s a different level of joy.” – 4:42 PM

More on this storyline
Those that know James best say he craves structure and accountability. He thrives in disciplined, highly organized systems. He does his best when everyone on the team understands their role. All are elements he had lost faith in under the Lakers’ previous regime, sources said. -via ESPN / October 4, 2024
PART OF THE reason James came to the Lakers as a free agent in 2018 is the standard of care they showed during the final seasons of Bryant’s career a decade ago, sources said. James liked playing for an iconic franchise as much as he liked how it treated its iconic players. -via ESPN / October 4, 2024
Edwin Garcia: JJ Redick says LeBron James and Anthony Davis will play this weekend. Did not state if it would be for both games or how much. -via x.com / October 3, 2024
