When might LeBron and Bronny play their first Lakers game together?
View Date:2024-12-23 19:56:51
LeBron James and Bronny James’ first chance to become the first father-son duo to play in the NBA at the same time – and for the same team no less – comes on opening night when the Los Angeles Lakers play host to the Minnesota Timberwolves on Oct. 22.
TNT will televise that game.
LeBron, who turns 40 on Dec. 30, and Bronny, who turns 20 on Oct. 6 and was the 55th pick by the Lakers in the second round of the June draft, will have other opportunities if it doesn’t work out in that game.
There’s no guarantee that LeBron and Bronny play in the season opener, but since the G League season doesn’t start until November, the Lakers may try to make history early in the NBA season and get it out of the way so that it's not a lingering distraction.
