Doric SamJul 18, 2024

Los Angeles Lakers rookie Bronny James will have the unique experience of playing on the same team as his legendary dad LeBron James, but that doesn't mean he will take it easy on the old man.

When asked what he's most looking forward to about being teammates with his father, Bronny took a second to think before telling reporters, "Going against each other in practice."

Bronny is coming off his best Summer League performance so far, finishing with 12 points in Wednesday night's 87-86 win over the Atlanta Hawks. He connected on two of his five three-pointers, marking the first triples he made as a professional.

The 19-year-old will continue to face pressure thanks to his famous lineage, but he's handled everything with grace so far. Spending his rookie season learning from his dad, who happens to be the greatest player of his generation, will undoubtedly benefit Bronny in his NBA career.
