Bronny James took a break from basketball to showcase his Call of Duty prowess during the NBA Summer League in Las Vegas.
The Los Angeles Lakers rookie emerged victorious in the Call of Duty Modern Warfare III tournament held at Encore Las Vegas on Sunday. According to Arash Markazi of the Sporting Tribune, James defeated Charlotte Hornets forward Grant Williams in a thrilling two-minute drill contest.
James scored an impressive 84 points to clinch the tournament, earning a custom Call of Duty championship belt and a $10,000 prize. Williams finished close behind with 83 points, while Detroit Pistons rookie Bobi Klintman secured third place with 77 points.

While James shined in the gaming world, his performance on the basketball court has been a work in progress.
In his three Summer League appearances for the Lakers, including two games at the California Classic, he has scored a total of 15 points. His shooting, however, has been underwhelming, hitting just 6-of-26 from the field and going 0-for-12 from 3-point range.
Despite these struggles, James remains a focal point of excitement and potential for Lakers fans.
The team will be back in action on Monday night in Las Vegas, where they are set to face the Boston Celtics. As James continues to develop his skills both on and off the court, all eyes will be on the young rookie to see how he evolves in the coming games.
