During their first training camp practice together, rookie guard Bronny James of the Los Angeles Lakers and his father, superstar player LeBron James, took part. Bronny demonstrated his outside shooting skills throughout the practice.

At the Lakers’ media day on Monday, Bronny was the talk of the town despite being the No. 55 pick in the current draft. The expectation is still building that Bronny and LeBron will become the first father-son team to play together in an NBA game.

On Tuesday, LA rookie coach JJ Redick led his first training camp session of the 2024–25 season, bringing them one step closer to the milestone. Later, video of LeBron and Bronny practicing on their shoots with Lakers third-year wing Max Christie surfaced on X/Twitter.During the shooting drills, Bronny in particular seemed to stand out; a video of him making six straight 3-pointers went viral.

Although Bronny’s quickness and perimeter defense were seen to be his strong points, his 3-point shooting was a source of worry after graduation. His deep ball percentage at USC last season was just 26.7% across 25 games. In July, he shot just 13.0% from long range in six NBA Summer League games after that.
