There are a lot of experts who have given their views on what Bronny James next goal should be and what he has to do next. Bronny is yet to play for the Lakers and is still on the bench. One of the experts that has given their views on Bronny is NBA legend Earvin "magic" Johnson Jr. who is a ex- Lakers player as well. Johnson has discussed the future of Bronny James saying, "If I am Bronny, I would tell my dad, ‘Just let me play in the G-League all season, so that I can develop.’ He needs playing time. He doesn’t need to be sitting on the Lakers bench and not playing."

This statement from Magic Johnson who is a  former 5-time NBA champion himself are clear words of wisdom and it could work in the young and upcoming players future as well. With the Lakers squad already having a fixed set of players, it might be better for him to get some time on the court in the amateur leagues and get some game time before playing among the pros.
