@montadgaf: “Rlly not a bad game tbh 6 assits and 4 steals not dat bad”
@TarraFan: “An absolute waste of time! Couldn’t even perform well against a team that rested its starters.”
@svynnnn: “the only reason ima say he trash is cause he played 38 minutes and only shot 10 times. Better to be 2-24 than stop shooting cause you 2-10”
@JohnLiotti25: “He’s got the potential to be a top tier defense guard”
@VaughnFry: “Bronny James really silenced the naysayers today scoring 4 points in 38 minutes in a 28 point loss to a non-playoff team. Definitely belongs in today’s more skilled NBA.”

The Lakers are the third seed with a 51-31 record.
They will play Anthony Edwards and the Minnesota Timberwolves in the first round of the 2025 NBA playoffs.
