Bronny James made his second G League appearance of the season for the South Bay Lakers on Sunday night.
James struggled with his efficiency during the game, finishing with four points on 2-10 shooting and missing both of his three-point attempts during a 127-122 loss to the Stockton Kings. He also recorded two rebounds, two assists and a block.
His two buckets consisted of a contested layup with his left hand and a fadeaway jumper in the second quarter.

Fans reacted to Bronny’s performance on Sunday.
It was a slow start to the 20-year-old’s G League career, as he previously scored six points and shot 22.2 percent from the field in his first appearance with the team on November 9.
As he transitions between the NBA and the G League, he is only expected to play home games for South Bay. Although it allows him to gain more experience in the club, it can also affect his scoring rhythm.
The younger James’ next opportunity to improve in the G League comes on Nov. 24, when South Bay hosts Stockton again.
