For the second consecutive game Friday, Lakers coach JJ Redick called the second-year guard's number for important minutes. For the second consecutive game, Bronny helped buoy the Lakers.

How about whatever happens with LeBron — when, or if, he retires — the Lakers should seriously consider keeping Bronny in the fold.
