Watch: LeBron James and Bronny James share animated moment after Lakers superstar's power play

Lakers rookie Bronny James was fired up watching his dad, LeBron James, execute a powerful play during the Lakers' 128-123 win over the Memphis Grizzlies on Wednesday. The father-son moment unfolded when LeBron used his strength to muscle past Santi Aldama, finishing a layup over two Memphis defenders with 9:36 remaining in the game.

After the basket, Grizzlies coach Taylor Jenkins called a timeout, giving the four-time NBA champion a moment to flex and celebrate. The moment was made even sweeter when an excited Bronny approached his dad, giving him an enthusiastic pat on the back.

LeBron delivered another stellar performance, helping the Lakers maintain their unbeaten home record. The veteran superstar secured his third consecutive triple-double, posting 35 points, 12 rebounds and 14 assists.

Meanwhile, rookie Bronny James did not see any game time, as coach JJ Redick opted not to utilize him. Bronny has primarily been getting minutes in garbage time when the game’s outcome is already decided. The former USC guard saw brief action against the Toronto Raptors on Sunday, playing two minutes without attempting a shot.
