Bronny hit three of his three-pointers in the fourth quarter alone, showing confidence in clutch moments. His strong finish helped South Bay wrap up the regular season with momentum.
The South Bay Lakers ended the regular season this year with a 26-10 record, securing the number one seed in the Western Conference. The team is now 14-0 in games Bronny has played. The playoffs are set to begin on Tuesday, March 31.
This performance came just one night after Bronny made history alongside his father, becoming part of the first father-son duo to combine for an assist when he knocked down a three-pointer in the second quarter against the Brooklyn Nets on Friday.
