The Los Angeles Lakers played the Phoenix Suns in their second preseason matchup ahead of the 2024-25 NBA season. Interestingly, LeBron James and his son Bronny became the first-ever father-son duo in NBA history. Despite the historical achievement, something else caught the NBA community’s attention. The matter has gone viral as well.

In a viral video, a fan was removed from the game in the second half. According to Dan Woike of The Los Angeles Times, “A fan who attempted to shoot the ball from behind the basket is ejected, and action stops.” After some time, James also hinted that he should be thrown. The fan protested when security attempted to remove him from the premises. Nevertheless, he was ejected from the arena.

Given that, his ejection garnered a lot of reactions from the NBA stars. The Lakers bench all reacted from James to his star teammate Anthony Davis. Not only that, Devin Booker and Kevin Durant of the Suns also had hilarious reactions to the fans’ ejection. Fans also poured their views on social media regarding the incident.

Meanwhile, on October 22, the Lakers will welcome Anthony Edwards, Julius Randle, and the Minnesota Timberwolves for their first regular season game. On October 23, the Suns will play their first game of the year in California against James Harden and the Los Angeles Clippers. It is only a matter of time before all the hilarious incidents turn competitive.
