LeBron James on Bronny: Father-Son Moments, Records, and NBA Anecdotes

LeBron James, 41, remains proud of his son Bronny's success both with the Lakers and in the G League.

James also remains proud of his own dominant basketball career. Nearly 12 years before LeBron and Bronny James became the first father-son duo in NBA history to record an assist together, Bronny revealed they played a one-on-one game where his dad broke the backboard.

LeBron recounts the moment when, after a drive, he dunked and ended up shattering the backboard.

After the Lakers' game against the Washington Wizards, LeBron commented: "I didn't mean to shatter the glass, but yeah, I shattered it." The incident, far from intimidating Bronny, fueled his career.

Bronny played at Sierra Canyon High School and in college (one year at USC) before being selected by the Lakers with the 55th pick.

In his second NBA season, Bronny has become a valuable rotation player on the Lakers and a key player on their G League team. On Saturday, Bronny led the South Bay Lakers to a 140-132 win over the Sioux Falls Skyforce with 26 points.

LeBron highlighted that they are a winning family, both in sports and in life.

On the same day, James watched his other son (Bryce) be on a team that advanced to the Final Four for the first time since 2001 (University of Arizona). Bryce has redshirted his freshman season, but LeBron and his wife, Savannah, watched both games at the same time.

James, who jumped from high school to the NBA in 2003, did not have the experience Bryce might have with winning an NCAA championship.

LeBron said smiling: "I'm happy for him. But I definitely made the right decision. I cut nets through three state championships. That was enough for me. I'm good".
