On October 6, 2024, LeBron James and his eldest son, Bronny James Jr., made history by becoming the first father-son duo to play together in an NBA game. The memorable moment took place during a preseason matchup where the Los Angeles Lakers faced the Phoenix Suns, with the Lakers narrowly losing 118-114. This event coincided with Bronny’s 20th birthday, adding to the significance of the occasion.
LeBron expressed his excitement on social media, calling the experience “surreal.” Lakers coach JJ Redick also commented on the historic moment, expressing his honor to be part of it. Bronny was drafted by the Lakers with the 55th pick after his first season at the University of Southern California. LeBron has set boundaries, asking Bronny to avoid calling him “dad” during team activities, preferring nicknames like “Bron” or “2-3.”
