LeBron James and his son Bronny carved their names in NBA history on Tuesday by becoming the first father-son pair to share the court during a regular season game. The Los Angeles Lakers secured a victory against the Minnesota Timberwolves, with fans erupting as Bronny entered the game.

Despite limited playing time, the young player seized a rebound, while his father, LeBron, a four-time champion, amassed 16 points, leading the team to a 110-103 triumph. Post-game, LeBron reflected emotionally on the significance of sharing this milestone with Bronny.

The duo's appearance marks a new chapter in the NBA. Notably, LeBron had often expressed a wish to play alongside his son. This historic event was witnessed by another iconic father-son duo, Ken Griffey Sr. and Ken Griffey Jr., who shared similar fame in Major League Baseball.
