Everyone said the same thing after coming across the first photo of LeBron and Bronny James together in Los Angeles Lakers uniforms.
The father-and-son duo are headed into their first season together, with the Lakers making the former USC Trojans guard their second-round pick this year following their acquisition of LBJ in 2018.
LeBron has brought the Western Conference outfit a championship since joining as a free agent and has since brought his very own son to the team in hopes of leaving them with enough firepower for the future. They’re now set to make history together as they will be the first such pairing to play professional sports together… and on the same team.
The senior and junior Jameses appeared in Lakers gear together for the first time this Monday when they arrived for the team’s Media Day. The Lakers shared a photo of father and son standing side by side on X/Twitter in a post that had attracted over 300K views at the time of writing.
