LeBron James' moment with son Bronny on the bench

LeBron James and his son Bronny James shared a touching moment on the bench during a timeout after Bronny took a seat following his missed field goal attempt. LeBron, visibly animated, engaged in a brief conversation with his son, offering words of encouragement after the missed shot.

Lakers forward Dorian Finney-Smith, who witnessed the heartfelt interaction up close, expressed how inspiring it was to see the father-son duo share such a special moment on the court.

"That's motivation," Finney-Smith said. "I probably won't be able to do it. I dunno if Ima be playing when I'm 40, but it's dope to see that connection."

Meanwhile, Bronny saw playing time for the second consecutive game, having also appeared for two minutes during the Lakers’ 116-102 loss to the Clippers on Sunday.

It will be interesting to see if Bronny continues to receive playing time when the Purple and Gold face the Boston Celtics on Thursday.
