The 2024-25 NBA season starts tomorrow. However, up until today, we still did not know the Los Angeles Lakers’ full final roster. Sure, the team was making moves that led to furious speculation from fans as recently as Sunday when the team signed rookie Quincy Olivari to a two-way contract.

However, the biggest question still on everyone’s mind was whether or not LeBron James’ son, Bronny James, would earn a spot on the Lakers’ regular-season roster. Bronny James played decently during the preseason, but did he play well enough to warrant taking a roster spot from someone more deserving?

Did Bronny James make the Lakers’ roster?

James is currently listed as part of the team’s roster, per their website. He will make his Crypto.com Arena debut on Tuesday against the Minnesota Timberwolves.
