Lakers teammates LeBron and Bronny James made history by becoming the first father-son tandem to ever play together in an NBA regular season game.
With four minutes remaining in the second quarter, the Lakers were ahead 51-35 when LeBron, 39, and Bronny, 20, both checked into the game.
Even though these two just shared a brief moment on the court, Crypto.com Arena was filled with applause as they created history on Tuesday night.
In another instance, LeBron attempted to make his first NBA shot by kicking out a pass to Bronny for a three-pointer on the wing, but it rimmed out.
The audience responded with a collective sigh, anticipating with bated breath the first points from this pair.
The Lakers are concentrating on Bronny’s growth, but at the start of the season, after choosing the younger James out of USC with the 55th overall pick in the NBA Draft, the team was said to seek this historic event.
On opening night, Bronny made the roster, but first-year head coach JJ Redick eventually called him off the bench.
