Will LeBron James finish 2025-26 season or leave midseason?

LeBron opted into his final year with the Lakers, but could a midseason split happen?

Bronny James and the Los Angeles Lakers continued their NBA Summer League schedule on Saturday, facing the New Orleans Pelicans at the Thomas & Mack Center in Las Vegas.

James scored eight points in an 87-85 loss to the Dallas Mavericks on Thursday in the Lakers’ first Vegas Summer League contest. That number was nearly higher as James attempted the potential game-winner, but his long-range effort before the buzzer didn’t fall.

Last week, the Lakers went 2-1 in California Classic play, falling to the Golden State Warriors before defeating the Miami Heat and San Antonio Spurs. After not playing against the Warriors, the son of LeBron James — who was in the building to watch Bronny on Saturday — put up 10 points in just 10 minutes of playing time against the Heat, but took a step back with a two-point showing versus San Antonio.

Here’s a breakdown of Bronny James’ latest stats, plus highlights from Saturday’s game between the Lakers and Pelicans:
