The path for Bronny to crack the Lakers’ rotation next season

Reed Sheppard and Nikola Topic have the shortest odds to win tournament MVP, but there are two other names in particular that stand out on this board, and that’s Bronny James (+4000) and Cooper Flagg (+2500).

After being drafted with the No. 55 pick of the 2024 NBA Draft, Bronny spent his rookie season rotating playing time between the South Bay Lakers and the Los Angeles Lakers.

However, the 6-foot-2 guard out of USC and son of LeBron James averaged only 2.3 points per contest in his first season.

And one expert said that he’s going to “have to figure it out” when it comes to evolving his game.

“Guys his size are usually lights-out shooters,” “Speak” co-host Paul Pierce explained. “So he has to hang his hat on the defensive end, and that’s one thing I’m going to be watching this summer — to see how intense he plays on the defensive end.

“[The Lakers] need some defensive presence. And if he can do that this summer and improve in that area, he can crack the lineup.”

Bronny James goes in for a slam dunk against the Miami Heat during the first half of the California Classic.

Another name fans and bettors might be eyeing when it comes to Summer League is Flagg.

The 6-foot-9 forward out of Duke was the No. 1 pick of the 2025 Draft and will be suiting up for Dallas next season.

“I actually do think he’s going to be good right away,” “First Things First” co-host Chris Broussard said about the rookie. “He can do it all. He can shoot the 3, he can shoot the midrange, he can take it off the dribble … he does defend.

“And he’s already going to be ahead of the NBA players because of his basketball IQ.”
