Bronny James is one of the biggest names in basketball this year thanks to the fact that his father is LeBron James. Overall, Bronny's foray into the NBA has been controversial. Many felt like it was undeserved when the Lakers drafted him. Moreover, his preseason was not the greatest, aside from one match in which he scored 17 points. Heading into the season opener against the Minnesota Timberwolves, it was anticipated that Bronny would get some minutes.
Again, some basketball fans were very much against this. However, no one could deny just how incredible it was when Bronny walked onto the court for the first time with his dad right next to him. Bronny only got to play for about three minutes. He picked up a rebound and missed a three-point shot that would have been assisted by his dad. Having said that, the Lakers were able to win agaisnt the reigning Western Conference Finalists, which is a big achievement, especially in JJ Redick's first game as head coach.
