LeBron James, the Los Angeles Lakers star, is set to begin his 22nd NBA season in a few days. This season will be unique as his son Bronny James will be joining him in the lineup. The Lakers drafted Bronny in the second round of the 2024 NBA draft. As the upcoming season approaches, the James duo has already been captivating their supporters with their playful banter, delighting fans when they were recently observed trolling each other.

During the practice game, James drove past Bronny along the baseline for a reverse layup, scoring over his son. Afterward, they exchanged words, which Rob Pelinka described as “more challenging than anything else” during a recent interview. Additionally, James posted about the practice session on his Instagram story, where he mentioned “Great Defense. Better O.”

During Lakers media day, Spectrum SportsNet desk reporter Allie Clifton asked Bronny about the incident. In response, James’ son claimed that he reviewed the clip and said that LeBron stepped out of bounds.

 Bronny James: “Alright, in all seriousness, I looked at the film, and he did step out of bounds. But I’m not gonna go there. I’m not gonna go there right now.”

LeBron James: “What do you mean you’re not going to go there right now? You just went there!”

 

Bronny: “I mean, I know you did.”

LeBron: “I stepped out of bounds?”

Bronny: “You did. You stepped out of bounds. I got the stop.”

LeBron: “They don’t even have that camera angle of the baseline like that!”

After the humorous conversation, LeBron James concluded by reminding Bronny that he is still a rookie.

Tampa Bay Buccaneers quarterback Baker Mayfield and his wife Emily have had to evacuate their home this week because of Hurricane Helene.

The hurricane hit northern Florida pretty hard, causing major flooding and power loss.

Mayfield, his wife Emily, their daughter, and their dog left their residence before the storm hit as a means of caution. Emily furnished her followers with an update on Friday.

“Baker, Koko, Fergus and I evacuated yesterday and are safe,” she said via Instagram. “Our sweet, sweet community got pummeled, but even that doesn’t compare to the people up North who took this storm head on. It’s unfathomable.”

Emily is grateful that Helene did not affect the Mayfield home but revealed she was “praying nonstop” for the people dealing with the impact while also offering tangible assistance.

“I am looking for ways to get out and tangibly help,” she added. “Please send me anything you find, and I will share the good ones.”
