After all, his son Bronny James—who he shares with wife Savannah James—became his Los Angeles Lakers teammate on June 27. Bronny, 19, was selected during the second round of the NBA draft, after the team chose University of Tennessee's Dalton Knecht, 23, as its first round pick.
In joining the team, Bronny and LeBron, 39, became the first father-and-son duo to play in the NBA at the same time, according to the league.
"Family business," the Lakers captioned a photo of LeBron and Bronny, with the teen adding on his Instagram Story, "Beyond blessed."

"I just want to say I'm thankful for everything," Bronny said during the post-game conference, giving shoutouts to "my parents and siblings for supporting me through this hard time in my life."
He added, "I just want to give appreciation to everyone who has helped me through this."
