Powerful Bronny, LeBron James photo captures historic Lakers moment

The Los Angeles Lakers are back. It all began with media day on Sept. 30, which was the first time fans got to see the new iteration of the team. LeBron James is back for year 22 and remains in a starring role as his 40th birthday approaches. The King will be leading the Lakers' charge, but there is a bit of extra motivation for this year.

New head coach J.J. Redick brings fresh energy and a working relationship with LeBron, but much talk will center on the King playing with his son. The Lakers drafted Bronny James in the second round out of USC. Fans are eager to see what he can do as a rookie and to capture that historic moment of playing on the same floor as his father.

Fans must see the first glimpse of father and son in their uniforms during media day.

The duo was photographed together to get the festivities started. Fans can see the images below, but this is historic. No father and son duo have ever played in the same game. It will be another record from LeBron, but an even more special moment personally.

King James has already talked about the boost his son being on the team has given him. The 39-year-old is coming off the Olympics but looks refreshed and ready for a monster season.

Anthony Davis has taken notice of the impact of Bronny joining the squad.

LeBron James is a 20-time All-Star and the NBA’s all-time leading scorer. He has accomplished everything possible on the court, but this record will hold a special place in his heart. LeBron has spoken for years about playing in the NBA with his son. The moment is finally here, and it will certainly be moving for the GOAT.

How much does Bronny James play this season? He struggled during his lone season at USC but was coming off a cardiac arrest incident. The 20-year-old has untapped potential and will certainly be putting in the work this season. He will likely spend most of his time with the South Bay Lakers, but there will be moments when Bronny shares the floor with his father in Hollywood.

The Los Angeles Lakers plan on having a bounce back season after a first-round playoff exit in 2024. LeBron James will be a crucial part of their success, and having his son around may help him maintain top form. There will be some history and plenty of excitement, so stay tuned.
