The name of LeBron James appears countless times in the best moments in NBA history. The one from Akron has won four NBA championship rings with three different teams, being nominated MVP on multiple occasions.
Also, ‘The King’ has several records in the American competition, such as being the NBA’s top scorer. However, this morning, LeBron added one more to his list. Perhaps, one of the most sentimental for him.
LeBron James and his son Bronny make history in the NBA
The Los Angeles Lakers started the 2024/25 season in the best possible way. They achieved a solid victory against the Minnesota Timberwolves 100-103 in their first victory as JJ Redick as a coach.
However, last night’s meeting will go down in history for the achievement that LeBron James and his son Bronny achieved: they became the first father and son duo in the NBA. Both players had already met on the field during the preseason, but this morning they did it officially.
Father and son starred in a memorable image when they entered the field together in the second quarter. Although Bronny only played 3 minutes, in which he grabbed a rebound, both have achieved a milestone that will go down in history.
Historic moment! 💎🤩

“Seeing myself on the scoreboards with my father, seeing it for the first time. It’s a crazy moment that I will never forget.. “I’m extremely proud,” Bronny James said.
“Family is above everything. It always is, always was. I missed a lot of time for this league. About his life, about important things. Having this moment in what I work and in what I live is one of the best things that have been given to me,” concluded a proud LeBron James, who scored 16 points in the first victory of the Los Angeles Lakers.
