Lakers Rookie Bronny James Leads NBA In Unfortunate Stat

Bronny James is the most scrutinized second-round pick in NBA history because he is the son of LeBron James, arguably the greatest player of all time.

After the Los Angeles Lakers selected Bronny James as the 55th overall pick in this year's NBA draft, it was seen as the team carried a favor for their franchise superstar, whose dream was to play with his son.

LeBron and Bronny had their historic moment during the Lakers' preseason game.

But other than that and his three-block performance in his preseason debut, Bronny James faded into obscurity.

Three preseason games into his Lakers career, Bronny James has the unfortunate distinction of having the worst plus/minus among all 494 players to have logged a minute in the exhibition games, according to Sporting News .

The Lakers have been outscored by 40 points in Bronny James' 35 minutes of action in three games.

The Lakers rookie guard is 1-of-11 from the floor and has more turnovers (5) than assists (1).

Undrafted rookie Quincy Olivari even overshadowed him with his scintillating fourth-quarter performance in the Lakers' 107-102 comeback win against the Milwaukee Bucks Thursday night.

Olivari, who subbed in for Bronny James in the fourth quarter, scored 11 points, including three 3-pointers, in the Lakers' 20-0 run to erase a 15-point deficit.

A second straight scoreless performance for Bronny James does not bode well for his career. But the good thing is time on his side.

The 19-year-old rookie will spend most of the season in the G League with the South Bay Lakers to hopefully develop into a rotation player.
