Bronny James, son of Los Angeles Lakers guard and NBA legend LeBron James, had a disappointing first scrimmage at the NBA Draft Combine on Tuesday. However, he bounced back in his second chance on Wednesday, as he finished with a team-high 13 points in 23 minutes for Team St. Andrews in a 90-83 win against Team Love.

Bronny’s improvement was notable, especially with his superstar father LeBron James and Lakers general manager Rob Pelinka in attendance. Bron played off the ball more frequently, which allowed him to get more catch-and-shoot opportunities and although he still has areas to improve, such as reducing turnovers and improving shooting efficiency (4/10), he showed more confidence in attacking the rim and fighting through contact.
