The Lakers defeated the Minnesota Timberwolves in Tuesday's season opener, making history as LeBron James and Bronny James became the first father-son duo ever to play in an NBA game together. L.A. next faces the Phoenix Suns on Friday night (ESPN) at Crypto.com Arena and then hosts the Sacramento Kings on Saturday before traveling to Phoenix, Cleveland, Toronto, Detroit and Memphis.
LeBron, of course, spent 11 of his first 21 years in the league with the Cavaliers. He was about to begin his second season with the Cavs when Bronny was born, Oct. 6, 2004, in Akron, Ohio, making for a momentous occasion when the Jameses return there next Wednesday.
