The young guard started the second quarter on a positive note and sinked a smooth fadeaway jumper. However, his shooting battles continued. Despite creating scoring opportunities for his teammates, he only managed to convert one of his five shot attempts.

At the break, Bronny had recorded eight points on 2 of 9 shoots, including 0 of 2 beyond the arch. He also contributed two rebounds, four assists and one stealing.

Bronny continued to fight his shooting as Hans Misses stacked up in the third quarter. Lakers-Rokie went 2 of 4 from the field during the period and eventually connected to his first 3-point in the final moments.
