While they lost by a score of 118-89, Bronny finished with 17 points, three rebounds, five assists and one block.

He also had a viral move on Giannis Antetokounmpo that got a lot of views on social media.

Bronny was unable to complete the highlight (and many thought the refs missed a foul call).

After the game, the former USC guard was asked about the viral play (h/t Bleacher Report).

Bronny: "He's a much bigger guy than me, so I just gotta find a way to get around him somehow. May have got fouled. That's up for argument. It is what it is. I tried to get me a bucket."

"I may have got fouled, that's up for argument."
