On the morning of July 11, Beijing time, in the NBA Summer League California Classic, the Lakers lost to the Heat 76-80 and suffered three consecutive defeats. At halftime, the Lakers led by four points at 40-36 and led by as many as 12 points in the second half, which was eventually reversed. Bronny played nearly 29 minutes, made 1 of 3 shots, scored 3 points, 5 rebounds, 3 assists, 2 steals and 3 blocks, with a plus/minus of +8.

Today was Bronny's second Summer League game, making his debut on July 7, Bronny was 2-of-9, 0-of-3 from three-point range, 0-of-2 from the free-throw line, and finished with 4 points, 2 rebounds, 2 assists and 1 steal. The plus/minus is -15, which is tied for the lowest in the game. In back-to-back games on July 8, Bronny was sidelined. After two games, he shot 3-of-12 from the field, 0-of-4 from three-point range and 1-of-4 from the free-throw line.

Just looking at the performance on the offensive end, let alone the NBA, it is difficult for Bronny to gain a foothold in the development league. However, he is more active on the defensive end, can give the opponent enough physical confrontation, and has a good sense of tackles. Bronny is positioned as a 3-and-D defender. At the moment, Bronny only has a D (defense) and no 3 (three-point).

The United States men's basketball team also has a game today, against Canada. When James warmed up, he also followed Bronny's game. "If you're born into an environment where your father is very famous, very wealthy, still stay motivated to chase your goals," James said. I don't know if I'll be able to do it if the roles are reversed. ”

Born on October 6, 2004, Brownie is 1.87 meters tall barefoot, with an arm span of 2.01 meters and a weight of 95 kilograms. The hand length is 21.6 cm, the hand width is 24.1 cm, the standing touch height is 2.5 meters, and the running and jumping is 1.03 meters.

In the 2023-24 NCAA season, Bronny averaged 4.8 points, 2.8 rebounds, 2.1 assists, 0.8 steals and 1.1 turnovers per game at USC, shooting 36.6%, 26.7%, and 67.6% from three.

In this year's draft, Bronny was selected by the Lakers with the 55th pick. Some teams wanted to cut Bronny early, but Rich Paul warned other teams that if Bronny was drafted, he might go to Australia to play. The Lakers offered Bronny a four-year, $7.9 million contract, fully guaranteed for the first two years, and a fourth-year team option.

Next, let's talk about Kneckett, who was selected by the Lakers with the 17th pick in the first round, today the Lakers played against the Heat, Kneckett played 31 minutes and 20 seconds, 7 of 18 shots, 2 of 8 three-pointers, 4 of 5 free throws, 20 points, 9 rebounds and 1 assist, plus or minus -6. In the previous two summer league games, Kneckett shot 3-of-12 in one game and 3-of-13 in the other.

Knecht was born on April 19, 2001, 4 months older than Edwards, a proper rookie! He is 1.98 meters tall, has an arm span of 2.06 meters, and is a draft template: Mike Miller. In the 2023-24 season, Kneckett averaged 21.7 points and 4.9 rebounds per game at the University of Tennessee, shooting 45.8%, 39.7%, and 77.2% from three.

Prior to the draft, Knecht's prediction pick was in the top 10 at one point. So, when the Lakers drafted him with the 17th pick, management thought they had picked up a treasure and specially developed a strategy for Knecht. After three summer league games, Kneckett's shooting percentage was only 30.2%! Kuzma pushed even more, nostalgic for the 2017 Lakers summer league lineup.

The two rookies selected by the Lakers this year, do you think they can make it into the team's rotation?
