Bronny James made his NBA regular season debut on Tuesday night in historic fashion.

This could have been truly inspiring if it weren’t so fake, staged, and self-centered.

That said, another moment that seemed to go viral in the aftermath seemed to feature Minnesota Timberwolves star Anthony Edwards trash talking Bronny:

Big picture, Bronny’s scoreless stat line echoed his performance for most of the preseason.

That said, his appearance in the Lakers’ first Game of the season definitely made for a fun show.

How much playing time will Bronny actually get in 2024 for the Lakers? Time will tell.
