Photo: LeBron James, Bronny James / Instagram   LeBron James is known for his legendary NBA career and strong values, especially when it comes to parenting. But during a recent game, he had to sit back and watch his son, Bronny James , face a classic rookie moment—without stepping in to help. Bronny, new to the Lakers, found himself in an awkward spot during a timeout. Anthony Davis , a senior team member, casually claimed the seat next to LeBron. Bronny, sitting there at the time, had to move without hesitation. The lighthearted moment had the crowd laughing, but it was also a reminder of the hierarchy rookies face, no matter their last name. LeBron stayed quiet, letting Bronny handle it on his own. It was a clear example of LeBron's ability to separate family from the professional world of basketball. On the court, Bronny isn’t just LeBron’s son—he’s a rookie teammate who has to earn his place like everyone else. Photo: LeBron James, Bronny James / Instagram   Bronny’s jour...

Even with LeBron sitting out due to soreness in his left foot, the Lakers beat the Trail Blazers 107–98.  Photo: Anthony Davis / Instagram   AD had an impressive game with 30 points, 11 rebounds, and five blocks.

LeBron’s jersey, worn in the Lakers' season opener and two preseason games, also made an appearance on Media Day.  Meanwhile, Bronny’s jersey has a twist. While Sotheby’s says it was worn during the second half of the game against Minnesota, photos suggest he never left his warmups. However, it was confirmed he wore it during Media Day and other preseason events. Photo: LeBron and Bronny James / Instagram   The jerseys mark a significant moment: LeBron, at 39, sharing the court with his son in an NBA game. For Bronny, it was a special comeback after recovering from cardiac arrest just a year ago. Given their historic value and the milestone the...

Photo: Bronny James / Instagram   The Los Angeles Lakers, known for their legendary players and rich history, have made headlines again. This time, it’s not because of LeBron James, but his son, Bronny James . Bronny, who recently joined the Lakers, has already made history—but not for his basketball skills just yet. Bronny and LeBron became the first father-son duo to play for the same NBA team. While Bronny’s time on the court is just beginning, he’s breaking records off the court. His jersey sales have skyrocketed , setting a new Lakers record that even the biggest stars couldn’t reach. After Bronny’s draft, over 500,000 of his jerseys sold, each priced at around $100. That’s over $50 million in revenue—an achievement that eclipses even LeBron’s jersey sales. Lakers owner Jeanie Buss is surely thrilled, as Bronny’s popularity is boosting the team’s finances in a big way. Photo: Bronny James / Instagram   The excitement around Bronny isn’t just with fans.

Photo: LeBron and Bronny James / Instagram   LeBron James has been planning to share the court with his son, Bronny , for years. Back in December 2020, the Los Angeles Lakers star hinted at the possibility during a media interview. LeBron, known as "King James," revealed how his career plans could align with Bronny's basketball journey. At the time, Bronny was 16 and on track to graduate high school in 2023. "The year I'll be a free agent will be the same year my oldest son graduates high school," LeBron said. "So I'll have some options: spending more time with my family, being around my son, or continuing to play the game I love. We'll see." Photo: LeBron and Bronny James / Instagram   LeBron's comments suggested he was thinking about the end of his career and how it could connect to Bronny’s start. In December 2020, LeBron signed a two-year contract extension with the Lakers. This deal meant he would be a free agent after the 2022-23...

Photo: LeBron James / Instagram   LeBron James , one of the NBA's all-time greats, is going through a tough stretch as he nears his 40th birthday. In his last four games, he has missed all 19 of his 3-point attempts. This slump is close to RJ Barrett’s record of 21 straight misses, but it’s not entirely new for James, who has had streaky shooting stretches throughout his career. While shooting has never been his biggest strength, LeBron's ability to dominate in other areas has always made up for it. But in the Lakers’ 109-80 loss to the Timberwolves on Monday, there were signs of a deeper problem. James finished with just 10 points, hitting only 4 of his 12 shots from inside the arc. This season, he’s averaging 22 points per game, his lowest since his rookie year. LeBron’s efficiency has taken a noticeable dip. He’s struggling to finish plays he used to dominate. For instance, he’s making 67.9% of his shots in the restricted area this season, down from 73.3% last year. In fast ...

Kleiman wrote that sports should bring people together, but instead, many discussions have become about clickbait and negativity. LeBron agreed, posting "AMEN" before adding, “And with that said, I’ll holla at y’all! Getting off social media for the time being. Y’all take care.” Photo: LeBron James / Instagram   Recently, there has been criticism about LeBron's son, Bronny James , and the way he's being treated in the G League .

Photo: Anthony Davis, Dalton Knecht / Instagram   The Los Angeles Lakers are on fire, winning five straight games to improve to 9-4 this season. On Saturday night, they beat the New Orleans Pelicans 104-99, despite dealing with injuries that have forced other players to step up. One of those players is rookie Dalton Knecht, who had a breakout game against the Pelicans. Starting for the second straight game, the rookie scored 27 points, showing why the Lakers picked him in the first round of the draft. With Rui Hachimura and Cam Reddish sidelined, Knecht stepped into the spotlight and helped secure the win. Lakers star Anthony Davis praised the rookie but also admitted he gets frustrated when Knecht doesn’t shoot enough. Photo: Anthony Davis / Instagram   “Every time he shoots the ball, we think it’s going in,” Davis said. “That’s why we get so frustrated and upset when he doesn’t shoot. He’s a great player.” Davis led the Lakers with 31 points, while Knecht was right behi...

In a new Netflix series, Starting 5 , he shares how he keeps up with younger players. His secret? A strict routine and a lot of dedication.
