Bronny James gets second career start for shorthanded Lakers vs. Bucks

With LeBron James and other players still out, the Los Angeles Lakers will be starting LeBron James Jr.

Bronny James is in the starting lineup for L.A.'s game against the Milwaukee Bucks on Saturday, joining Luka Doncic, Austin Reaves, Deandre Ayton and Jake LaRavia. It is the second start of the younger James' career and his first of the season.

James' only other career start was in the Lakers' regular season finale last season, a game in which they had nothing to play for with the No. 3 seed in the West already sewn up. In his 38 minutes, James posted 4 points on 2-of-10 shooting, 6 assists, 4 steals, 3 rebounds and 3 turnovers in a 109-81 loss to the Portland Trail Blazers.

So this is basically the first time James has started a game that matters for the Lakers.
