During the second quarter of the Los Angeles Lakers' season-opening 110–103 win over the Minnesota Timberwolves, 39-year-old LeBron checked into the game alongside his 20-year-old son, Bronny.
The two played together for 2 minutes and 41 seconds, and for LeBron, this feat is so special.
"It's family. It's always been family over everything," LeBron James told ESPN post-game. "For me, I lost a lot of time because of this league, committing to this league, being on the road on times, missing a lot of his [Bronny's] things, Bryce's things, Zhuri's things. So, to be able to have this moment where I'm working still and I can work alongside my son -- it's one of the greatest gifts I've ever got from the man above. I'm going to take full advantage of it."
LeBron finished the game with 16 points, five rebounds, and four assists in 35 minutes, while Bronny went scoreless during his brief time on the court with his dad.
"Going up to the scorer's table with my dad and checking in for the first time, that's a crazy moment I will never forget," Bronny said after the Lakers' win.
