LeBron James passed to his son Bronny James for a 3-pointer in a Los Angeles Lakers game, creating the first father-son assist in NBA history. The play occurred during a 116-99 win over the Brooklyn Nets on March 28, 2026, with the elder James finding his 21-year-old son on the left wing for the game-changing shot. This historic moment marked the second consecutive game Bronny played for the Lakers after recovering from a cardiac arrest during a USC workout in 2024, where he was selected with the No. 55 pick in the 2024 draft.

Bronny, shooting 40% on 3-pointers this season, expressed gratitude for the opportunity, while LeBron emphasized the significance of their shared presence on the court. Beyond the milestone, Bronny's performance highlights his return to form, with both players expressing excitement about their evolving roles within the Lakers' rotation.
