LeBron James writes he is blessed to have Bronny on X
Bronny James is starting to show his true colors after a career-high game on Friday. In the South Bay Lakers’ 122-110 triumph over the Rip City Remix, James Jr. delivered a stellar 31-point performance. After a lackluster first half, Bronny was particularly effective in the second half, scoring 25 points in the final 24 minutes.
This marked Bronny James’ second 30-point outing since being relegated to the G-League. The game also featured a couple of notable throwdown posters and alley-oops from Bronny. After the game, LeBron James‘ son reflected on the importance of finding his groove and expressed gratitude for the opportunity to play basketball professionally.
“I’m just tryna get my confidence back, that’s all. I’m just trying to go out, play my game, learn from every game. While I’m not playing in the G league, learn from the Lakers, learn from my vets and….I’m happy with my results. I am having fun. Any time I’m playing basketball, any time I’m out here breathing, any time I’m out here walking … I’m grateful for everything.

Of course, any father would be proud of his son’s career-high performance as a rookie, and it was certainly a proud moment for the James family. Bron took to X to call his son a blessing, tweeting, “GRATEFUL OF YOU.” Mama James also couldn’t hide how hyped she was after her oldest son brutally posterized Sterling Manley.
In Friday’s matchup, Bronny James Jr. shot 10-for-22 from the field, including 5-for-11 from beyond the arc. He also contributed three assists, two rebounds, and two steals, along with a viral poster late in the third quarter.

As the old adage goes, “like father, like son.” LeBron James himself threw down a viral alley-oop poster on the Washington Wizards’ Jonas Valanciunas a couple of days ago. Lucky for us, his son was in attendance on the bench when the 40-year-old King tried to go one more bout against Father Time and gave his honest-to-God reaction to the dunk.

Thrilled, startled, and amused, Bronny’s reaction to his dad’s dunk is as good as it gets in the NBA in the year 2025. Despite the domestic decline in traditional television viewership, the NBA has shown significant strength worldwide, captivating the fans on social media and digital platforms with one highlight reel after another.
Addition of international players like Luka Doncic, Nikola Jokic, and Giannis Antetokounmpo also helps in increasing the eyeballs in their respective countries. The recent NBA game in Paris became the most-viewed NBA Global Game ever in France, with over 218 million views across platforms. This suggest that while U.S. ratings are down, the NBA’s popularity is at an all-time high globally, with significant revenue growth attributed to international markets.
