LeBron, Bronny James 1st father-son duo to play in preseason

LeBron and Bronny James open the second quarter against the Suns on Sunday, taking the court together for the first time in preseason game action.

LeBron James – entering his 22nd season – and newly-turned 20-year-old Bronny James took the floor for their first game action as Lakers teammates, both playing against the Suns in a preseason matchup on Sunday.

LeBron started, and Bronny checked in alongside him to open the second quarter.

It marked an early preview of a looming NBA first, which will come whenever the pair makes its respective NBA debuts. They will become the 1st father-son duo to play in the NBA at the same time, let alone alongside each other.

LeBron James. Bronny James.
