Lakers Should Cut Bronny

OutKick columnist Matt Calkins argues the Lakers should release Bronny James, saying his limited NBA production does not justify a roster spot now that his father, LeBron James, has joined the Philadelphia 76ers. Bronny averaged 2.3 points in 27 games in his first NBA season and 2.9 points in 42 games in his second; he has scored 0.8 points per game through five games this season. Calkins also cites Bronny’s G League performance and says waiving him would free a roster spot, though the Lakers would still owe about $2.3 million on his guaranteed contract.
