Last week, we heard of an early “Welcome to the NBA” moment from rookie Bronny James, and it came courtesy of his own father. But that play — where LeBron took Bronny baseline for the score — was lacking Bronny’s take.
On Monday, Bronny was asked about the play. And honestly, his answer didn’t disappoint. We got a glimpse of what the father-son dynamic could be like with the Lakers this season.
When the moment was brought up in an interview at Lakers media, Bronny — with LeBron seated besides him — had to roast his father by claiming that the future Hall of Famer stepped out of bounds. LeBron wasn’t going to let Bronny have that either.

“What do you mean you’re not going to go there? You just went there!”
That banter is going to be wild to hear as the season gets going.
