Ahead of their pivotal game against the Denver Nuggets, the Los Angeles Lakers have sent rookie guard Bronny James back down to the G League. Los Angeles has had James shuffle back and forth between the G League and the NBA but they don't feel that they need him against Denver.

A day before the game, however, the Lakers made an announcement on rookie Bronny James that may be worth taking a look at for both fanbases. In their latest injury report against the Nuggets, the Lakers announced that James will head back to the G League with the South Bay Lakers and be inactive against Denver.
