Bronny James is getting more special treatment from the Lakers. LeBron’s eldest son, whom the Lakers took late in the second round of this year’s NBA draft, will only be playing in G League home games and won’t be getting on commercial flights for the South Bay Lakers’ road contests,

The Lakers drafting Bronny James was always going to become a sideshow for Los Angeles this season when it came to LeBron, but new information about Bronny’s G League assignment is beyond the pale. ESPN’s Brian Windhorst reports that the Lakers rookie is getting phenomenal star treatment during his time with the South Bay Lakers of the G League.

Former NBA player Brian Scalabrine echoed similar thoughts on his SiriusXM NBA radio show with Frank Isola, saying competing against older players and traveling to games instead of living the first-class life of an NBA player would toughen James up and reveal his “inner dog.”
