In this story:

After LeBron James and his son Bronny James made history to start the season as the NBA's first father-son duo, Bronny is getting reps in with the franchise's G League affiliate, the South Bay Lakers.

According to ESPN's Shams Charania, the Lakers plan to move Bronny back and forth between the G League and their main roster. Bronny will suit up for South Bay in their home games, then shift to and from the NBA club. Although Bronny is on a standard NBA contract with the Lakers, the team is free to assign him to their G League affiliate as they please.

Bronny, the 55th overall pick in this year's draft, scored six points and had four assists along with five turnovers in his South Bay debut Saturday. It's common for second-round picks to spend time in the G League as it's difficult to crack an NBA rotation out of the gate.

Now that LeBron and Bronny became the first father-son duo to appear on the court together during the same NBA game, we'll get to watch Bronny's development through a large diet of minutes in the G League.

Here's how to watch Bronny's G League games when he is on assignment from the Lakers while South Bay is at home.

ESPN, Roku, and Tubi are a handful of the league's broadcast partners, while you can find certain games on the G League's own website.
