The crowd gave out a thunderous roar at the start of the second quarter when Bronny James, who was celebrating his 20th birthday, checked into the game and joined his father on the court for the very first time. On Sunday night, LeBron James and Bronny James made history as the first father-son duo to play together in an NBA game. The Los Angeles Lakers faced the Phoenix Suns in a preseason matchup at Arcisure Arena, ultimately losing 118-114.
In response to this historic moment, Bronny posted just one word on X: “History.”
How’s Bronny James Performing in the Preseason?
Bronny’s season has been a mixed bag so far. In combined games, LeBron’s oldest son has scored just two points on one-of-seven shooting, along with five turnovers. Despite his underwhelming offensive stats, Bronny showcased his defensive potential by blocking three shots in the first two games.
It’s important to remember that two preseason games are not enough to draw any definitive conclusions about a player’s skill set.
