Lakers' Bronny James scores career-high 39 points in G League game: 'I belong out there'
Four days after playing the best NBA game of his young career, Bronny James did the same in the G League.
Starting for the Lakers' South Bay affiliate Monday night, the rookie scored a career-high 39 points in a 122-118 win over the Santa Cruz Warriors at UCLA Health Training Center in El Segundo.
James made 14 of 21 shots, including four of eight from three-point range, and added four assists, four steals and one block in 38 minutes. He also committed seven turnovers, which tied for his most.
After the game, LeBron James posted a clip of his oldest son clearly enjoying himself on his big night.
SMILE THROUGH IT ALL YOUNG 🤴🏾!!! 🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾 KEEP GOING!! https://t.co/xAWHGG6SI5
— LeBron James (@KingJames) March 25, 2025
"SMILE THROUGH IT ALL YOUNG [prince]!!!" James tweeted.
On Thursday, Bronny played a season-high 30 minutes for the Lakers in the absence of several of top players — including his father and Luka Doncic — and finished with a career-best 17 points and five assists during a 118-89 loss to the Milwaukee Bucks.

That performance prompted ESPN personality Stephen A. Smith to say he "might have been wrong" when he stated that Bronny belongs in the G League.
Bronny returned to his more limited role with the Lakers on Saturday night, scoring two points on 0-for-4 shooting in seven minutes during a 146-115 loss to the Chicago Bulls. After he returned to South Bay on Monday, the NBA squad continued to struggle with a 118-106 loss to the Orlando Magic.
With the Lakers losing three straight games, it will be interesting to see if they call up Bronny and give him more minutes. He has averaged 2.3 points and 5.9 minutes in 23 games with the Lakers.

Bronny's previous high for South Bay was 31 points during a 122-110 win over the Rip City Remix on Jan. 24. He has averaged 22.4 points in 10 games in the G League.

After his performance against Santa Cruz, James was asked on Spectrum SportsNet what he had been trying to prove on the court.
“Just that I belong out there," James said. "That’s all I’m trying to prove. A lot of people say I don’t, but I just come out, work every day, try to get better every day and prove myself every day.”
He added: "All the criticism that’s thrown my way, it’s just amazing to shut all that down and keep going.”

Same old Cal: Arkansas’ Calipari not backing off relying on freshmen in NIL, transfer portal era
John Calipari embraced the one-and-done era like few college basketball coaches, becoming one of the best annually at bringing in talented freshmen and routinely getting them to Final Fours before shipping them off to the NBA. The formula served him well during his 15-year run at Kentucky that ended after last season, as NIL money and the transfer portal skewed rosters older and created more parity. “I’m kind of back to the roots of being the underdog,” Calipari said before the Razorbacks’ NCAA Tournament first-round win over Kansas last week.

Josh Pastner will try to restore UNLV basketball glory days as he takes over the program
Josh Pastner was named UNLV coach Tuesday, the latest to try to turn around a college basketball program that has gone from one of the nation's best to one that is largely irrelevant. The Rebels have not made the NCAA Tournament since 2013 and have not advanced to at least the Sweet 16 since 2007. “This has always been a dream job for me, and I fully recognize the significance of UNLV in the landscape of college basketball,” Pastner said in a statement.
Christie calls LaVine ‘incorrect' for Kings vibes comment
Christie calls LaVine ‘incorrect' for Kings vibes comment originally appeared on NBC Sports Bay Area
Kings interim coach Doug Christie doesn’t agree with guard Zach LaVine‘s recent comments.
Following Sacramento’s 113-95 loss to the Boston Celtics on Monday night at Golden 1 Center, LaVine, visibly upset while speaking to reporters, referred to the Kings’ vibes as “not good” after falling under .500 for the first time since Feb. 7.
Less than 24 hours later, while addressing the media prior to Sacramento’s matchup against the Western Conference-leading Oklahoma City Thunder on Tuesday night, Christie pointed to why LaVine’s comments were inaccurate.
Or, as Christie said …
“He was incorrect,” Christie told reporters (h/t Sactown Sports 1140’s Brenden Nunes).
Sitting at 35-36, the Kings quickly are sinking in a tight West playoff race, winning just three of their last 10 games.
The team’s struggles are reflected in LaVine’s most recent performances, averaging 12.7 points on 15-of-42 shooting (35.7 percent) from the field and 3 of 15 (20 percent) from 3-point range throughout Sacramento’s current three-game losing streak.
As Christie alluded to, the Kings’ locker room atmosphere, with every excuse to feel down, was optimistic on Monday night.
“I think when you ask a question like that, after you go through a little bit of a losing streak, it’s more about not being happy that you lost,” Christie added.
“Like, I’m upset that I lost. But when I addressed them upstairs, everybody sat down, and the first thing I said was, ‘I’m happy to see that your vibe is right because I was about to say something.’
“But their vibe was spectacular. But that’s how it’s always been, and I know Zach takes this serious, and they all do, but there’s also understanding that your vibe ain’t only right when you’re winning… but I’m not about that, and that locker room ain’t going to be about that.
Like Christie, guard Keon Ellis echoed a sentiment that dispels any negative tension in Sacramento.
Keon Ellis' response to Zach LaVine saying the vibe "is not good" in the Kings' locker room.
"I think the vibes in the locker room are great, actually. I just think, on the court, we have to figure out how to come together a little more."

As the regular season comes down to 11 games – including a six-game road trip with stops against the Orlando Magic, Indiana Pacers, Washington Wizards, Charlotte Hornets, Cleveland Cavaliers and Detroit Pistons – Christie hopes his team walks together, shoulder to shoulder.
Even when the results aren’t going Sacramento’s way.
“It’s going to be about trying to figure it out, trying to problem solve, uplifting my brother, supporting my brother, and that goes with however many games you lose,” Christie concluded.
“And at the same time, we’re elated and happy when we win. But it’s a process to what we have to go through. It’s a lot that’s happened here in a really, really short amount of time, and that’s just a reality, no excuse.
“We expect to win every game that we go out there and play, because I think that we have the talent to do that, and when it doesn’t, it hurts, and it’s supposed to hurt…”
What we learned as Butler's Miami return ends in ugly Warriors loss
What we learned as Butler's Miami return ends in ugly Warriors loss originally appeared on NBC Sports Bay Area
Jimmy Butler III’s return trip to Miami was less a revenge game than another stain on the Warriors’ suddenly spiraling season.
Golden State trailed from the start, never got close enough to touch the Miami Heat and wound up on the business end of a 112-86 walloping that delivered all manner of ominous signals.
This loss, the Warriors’ second in a row following a 124-115 beating by the Atlanta Hawks, continues their sudden return trip toward mediocrity. They’ve lost three of their last five games, and this one was a profoundly unsatisfying conclusion to a game that came with tangled emotions.
Four Warriors scored in double figures, led by Jonathan Kuminga’s 15 points, but they were routed in every conceivable way.
Here are three observations from a nightmare on South Beach:
Butler vs. Wiggins
Two names were on the marquee at tipoff: Jimmy Butler and Andrew Wiggins. They were traded for each other last month, and each was going to be a significant contributor to whatever happened on the court.
There wasn’t much of a battle, but Wiggins was superior. And his team won the war decisively.
The former Golden State NBA All-Star finished with 10 points (4 of 13 from the field, 2 of 4 from beyond the arc), five rebounds, five assists, three blocks and two steals. He played 28 minutes and finished plus-2.

— Miami HEAT (@MiamiHEAT) March 26, 2025
Butler, who claimed this would be “just another game” on the schedule, coped with a mixture of cheers and boos throughout. He finished with 11 points (5 of 12 from the field, 0 of 2 from deep), seven rebounds, two assists and two steals. He was minus-19 over 29 minutes.
Jimmy went to work on this and-1 🪣 pic.twitter.com/OWUv8uvNm1

Weakened Offense Expected, But Defense Also Putrid
Stephen Curry’s absence always compromises Golden State’s offense – and surely it did – but what is the excuse for the defense?
After consecutive games with porous defense, the Warriors realized they needed to upgrade their intensity. They were unable to do it.
The Heat cooked them in the first quarter, fired up a blowtorch in the second quarter and built 57-40 lead off 53.8-percent shooting from the field, including a preposterous 72.7 percent beyond the arc. Starting guards Tyler Herro and Alec Burks combined for 23 points on 8 of 10 shooting, including 5 of 6 from distance.
Miami shot 55.8 percent from the field, including 68 percent from distance.
Golden State in its two previous games allowed the Hawks to shoot 57 percent from the field, including 41.7 percent from deep, and the Toronto Raptors to post 56.4/42.3 percent splits.
Shoddy defense suddenly is becoming the biggest threat to the Warriors’ hopes of staying above the NBA play-in tournament fray.
Bench Came To Play
The only encouraging sign for Golden State came from the play of its bench.
With Buddy Hield, Gui Santos and Kuminga leading the way, the Warriors’ reserves punished those of the Heat, outscoring them 30-2 in the first half and 48-24 for the game. Hield scored 10 points and Santos had 13 on 5-of-8 shooting, including 3 of 6 beyond the arc. Santos and Gary Payton II (four points, 2 of 2 shooting) were the only two Warriors to shoot at least 50 percent.
How bad was the overall bench discrepancy? Golden State’s bench outscored its starters 30-10 in the first half and 48-38 for the game.
This was, for the starters, one of the lousiest performances of the 2024-25 NBA season.

Vaughn Dalzell (@VmoneySports) leans the Mavericks Team Total Under 106.5:
"Jalen Brunson, Kyrie Irving, and Anthony Davis will not be available for this game, so I am expecting far fewer points when the Knicks and Mavericks meet this time. The first matchup had a combined 243 points and this game total is hovering in the low 220's. With Dallas being on a back-to-back after the 19-point win over Brooklyn last night, I like the Mavericks team total Under 106.5 against New York. The Knicks had Sunday and Monday off, so New York has a clear rest advantage."

Doc Rivers pushes back against "unfair" criticism of blown 3-1 playoff series leads
Doc Rivers has coached 20 teams to the NBA playoffs, has won more postseason games than he has lost, has won a Coach of the Year award (2000), has a championship ring from the 2008 Boston Celtics, is about to pass Phil Jackson for seventh on the all-time coaching wins list, and was named among the 15 greatest coaches in NBA history by the league.
However, ask most fans about Rivers as a coach and the first thing that comes up is the three blown 3-1 leads in playoff series — he is the only coach in league history to blow multiple 3-1 leads in the postseason.
Rivers pushed back against that narrative, speaking to Andscape’s Marc J. Spears.
"It is what it is. It's part of my legacy. There's nothing I can do about it. I got a team that was an eight seed up 3-1. That is coaching. That is not bad coaching. The one with the Clippers is the only one that got away. But people don't realize that Chris Paul was running on one leg [in 2015 with the Clippers] and we were also the underdog in that series. When you think about it, Houston had home court, not us.
"No one tells a real story. And I'm fine with that. It's unfair in some ways. I don't get enough credit for getting the three wins. I get credit for losing. I always say, 'What if we had lost to Houston in six?' No one cares. One of the things that I'm proud of is we've never been swept. All the coaches have been swept in the playoffs. My teams achieve. A lot of them overachieve and I'm very proud of that."
Maybe the most famous of those blown leads was in the bubble in 2020, when Rivers coached a title contender in the Clippers who were up 3-1 on the Nuggets and lost.
"No, in the bubble, I had a group of guys that didn't want to be there. [Ex-Clippers guard] Lou Williams said [on a podcast in 2023], 'Look, we were trying to leave. We made the decision that we didn't want to be there.' So, I felt that... And what bugs me about the bubble is I couldn't get them to understand that we had a chance to win [a title]. That's what bugs me. They wanted to go home more than they wanted to win. And I still don't understand that."
Rivers isn't totally wrong — his teams are making the playoffs and often with good seeds. The first of those blown leads was in 2003 when he coached an eight-seed Orlando team against top-seeded Detroit, getting that team up 3-1 was impressive. The 2020 blown lead against Denver, on a Clippers team with two-time Finals MVP Kawhi Leonard, will always be the one that got away.
Rivers is a quality NBA coach, without question. Whether he gets the most out of his team and knows how to motivate them in the playoffs is a legitimate question, but he will get another chance to prove himself this season with a Bucks team with high expectations but maybe not the roster to live up to them. Can he get this team to overachieve?
And hold on to leads?

Vaughn Dalzell (@VmoneySports) leans Jimmy Butler to go Under 6.5 rebounds:
"Over the last 10 games, Butler averages 10.0 rebound chances per game and 6.4 of those converted and 7.4 converted on 11.4 potential boards in the past five outings. However, Miami is obviously his former team, so there will be more physicality in this game and potential for a blowout as well (in favor of Golden State). Butler recorded six or more rebounds in four straight games until four boards in the previous outing and 10-9 to the Under 6.5 rebounds since joining Golden State. I like Butler to go Under 6.5 boards at -105 odds."
