Former USC Trojans guard Bronny James is a rookie with the Los Angeles Lakers. James is splitting his time between the NBA and the G League. James' agent Rich Paul argues that James needs more consistency and to spend time in the G League.

前 USC Trojans 球員 Bronny James 目前是洛杉磯湖人的菜鳥球員。James 正在 NBA 和 G 聯盟之間分配時間。James 的經紀人 Rich Paul 認為，James 需要更多的一致性並且應該在 G 聯盟中度過更多時間。

Former USC Trojans guard Bronny James was selected by the Los Angeles Lakers inthe second round of the 2024 NBA Draft. James has spent time in the NBA and G League as a rookie.

前 USC Trojans 球員 Bronny James 在 2024 年 NBA 選秀的第二輪被洛杉磯湖人選中。James 在菜鳥賽季中同時參與 NBA 和 G 聯盟的比賽。

While getting minutes in an NBA game is valuable, the lack of consistency for Bronny is a concern. James’ agent, Rich Paul is among the group who agree James should stick to playing for the South Bay Lakers in the G League to help him develop.

雖然能夠在 NBA 比賽中獲得上場時間很有價值，但對於 Bronny 來說，缺乏一致性是一個問題。James 的經紀人 Rich Paul 是認為 James 應該專注於為 G 聯盟的 South Bay Lakers 球隊效力，以幫助他發展的聲音之一。

Paul appeared on the “Gil’s Arena” podcast to discuss where James is playing. On the podcast, host Kenyon Martin asked if James getting G League reps is valuable.

Paul 最近在 “Gil’s Arena” 播客中談到了 James 的比賽安排。在節目中，主持人 Kenyon Martin 問到 James 在 G 聯盟的練習是否有價值。

“[He needs the reps] in the G League, absolutely,” Paul said.

“[他需要在 G 聯盟中進行練習]，絕對需要，”Paul 說。

Paul went on to expand on his views that reps in the G League are valuable, andsomething most young players do in today's landscape of the NBA.

Paul 接著闡述了他對 G 聯盟練習的看法，認為這對現在的 NBA 年輕球員來說是很重要的發展途徑。

“The G League for today has a much better development criteria to it, and if you look at the draft, we’ve had pretty much everybody from the third pick in the draft to the last pick in the draft, have some time in the G League,” Paul explained.

“現在的 G 聯盟有著更好的發展標準，如果你看看選秀，我們幾乎所有的球員，從第三順位到最後一順位，都在 G 聯盟有過一些時間，”Paul 解釋道。

The most valuable aspect of playing in the G League is the consistent playing time. Splitting time with two different teams can stunt James’ development. James is still a young player, just 20 years old.

在 G 聯盟打球最有價值的地方是穩定的上場時間。在兩支不同球隊分配時間可能會阻礙 James 的發展。James 仍然是一名年輕球員，只有 20 歲。

“Let him play his uninterrupted G League minutes and when the season is over, bring him up. Let him go on the road, let him get his bumps out, let him just play through mistakes," Martin argued.

“讓他在 G 聯盟中專心打球，等到賽季結束後再將他調上來。讓他上場打比賽，讓他受些磨練，讓他通過錯誤去成長”Martin 強調。

James played in 25 games with the USC Trojans, starting in six. James averaged 4.8 points, 2.8 rebounds, and 2.1 assists per game. After one season, James tookthe opportunity to move to the NBA, being selected with the No. 55 overall pickby the Lakers. James and his father, LeBron James became the first father-son duo to play in a game together.

James曾在USC Trojans隊打過25場比賽，並且有6場是首發。他場均貢獻4.8分、2.8籃板和2.1助攻。經過一個賽季後，James選擇進入NBA，並被洛杉磯湖人選中，成為第55順位的選手。James和他的父親LeBron James成為史上首對在同場比賽中的父子組合。

Paul went on to explain that many players are still underdeveloped when they first enter the NBA.

Paul進一步解釋說，許多球員在首次進入NBA時仍然沒有完全發展。

“The problem that we got is, most people don’t understand…when you get your opportunity in most cases, you’re underdeveloped,” Paul said.

“我們面臨的問題是，大多數人不理解...當你獲得機會時，大部分情況下你還不夠成熟，”Paul說。

“In the NBA, the issue is those opportunities don’t come around a multiple oftimes, so when you see a young man leaving college to go play in the league, what’s he’s betting is, ‘I’m going to be ready when I get my opportunity.’ In
most cases, that’s not the case.”

“在NBA，問題是這些機會不是隨時都有，所以當你看到一個年輕人從大學來打聯盟，他賭的是，‘當我得到機會時，我會準備好。’但大多數情況下，事實並非如此。”

Paul used New Orleans Pelicans shooting guard Dejounte Murray as an example of how the G League can help develop players.

Paul以鵜鶘隊的得分後衛Dejounte Murray為例，說明G聯盟如何幫助球員發展。

“I represent Dejounte Murray. [He] played a full season in the G League and was the starting point guard in the Western Conference Finals against the Warriors— that's development,” Paul said. “I embrace the G League.”

“我代表Dejounte Murray。[他]在G聯盟打了整個賽季，並且在對勇士的西區決賽中擔任首發控衛—這就是發展，”Paul說。“我支持G聯盟。”

Paul’s argument on the podcast is that while NBA minutes are valuable, consistent reps in the G League will help develop James as an overall player. Martin agreed with Paul's argument, emphasizing the importance of allowing young players to grow.

Paul在節目上的觀點是，雖然NBA的上場時間很有價值，但在G聯盟中穩定的經驗能夠幫助James成為一名全能的球員。Martin同意Paul的觀點，強調讓年輕球員成長的重要性。

“It’ll benefit him in the long run. We ain’t saying he’s gonna be his daddy.
No! But this time is crucial for him because he’s still fragile in basketballperiod… We’re gonna let him be the 55th pick," Martin added.

“這對他長期來說會有幫助。我們不是說他會成為他的父親。不是！但這段時間對他來說至關重要，因為他在籃球上還很脆弱…我們會讓他成為第55順位的選手，”Martin補充道。

With time, James could turn into a solid NBA player. Allowing him the time to grow and consistently play in the G league can help the young player in the long run.

隨著時間的推移，James可能會成為一名穩定的NBA球員。讓他有時間成長並穩定地在G聯盟中打球，對這位年輕球員的長期發展是有幫助的。
