Missing his seventh straight game with a groin injury, LeBron James was joined on the bench by Luka Doncic who was also inactive. The two stars watched Bronny James make Lakers history despite the loss.

In the aftermath of a career night for Bronny James, Lakers coach JJ Redick detailed his development as one of the team's youngest active players. According to the coach, James' greatest area of improvement so far is as a playmaker and it's opened up the game in major ways for the 20-year-old point guard.

Away from the bright lights (as much as he can be), the 20-year-old has made strides, as any rookie would hope: "I see the progress."
