Los Angeles Lakers consider roster options for Bronny James

The Los Angeles Lakers face decisions regarding the roster status of Bronny James following the departure of LeBron James to the Philadelphia 76ers. While some speculation has surfaced about a potential roster move, team insiders indicate the organization has not initiated plans to cut ties. Bronny James remains under a team option for next season, providing the Lakers with a mechanism to waive him if they determine his spot is better occupied by another player. Despite his father’s move to Philadelphia, the Lakers have reportedly acknowledged Bronny James' performance during his previous campaign, where he shot 39 percent from behind the arc. The team is currently assessing whether his continued presence aligns with their roster objectives. Any decision to waive him would result in approximately $2.3 million in dead money against the salary cap for the current season.
