What are the most NBA points by a father-son duo?

Whether it's Bill Walton and Luke Walton , Arvydas Sabonis and Domantas Sabonis , or Rick Brunson and Jalen Brunson , the NBA has featured several productive father-son duos throughout its history. The moment Bronny James suits up for the Los Angeles Lakers for the 2024-25 season, he and his father, LeBron James , will not only become the first to play alongside each other -- they will be the highest-scoring father-son duo in NBA history.

LeBron enters the season with 40,474 career points, the most in league history. The four-time NBA champion and four-time league MVP is the only player to eclipse the 40,000-point plateau.

LeBron's career total alone is nearly 2,000 points more than the NBA's previous all-time highest-scoring father-son duo of Joe "Jellybean" Bryant and Kobe Bryant . Joe scored 5,252 points for three different teams during his eight-year NBA career, while Kobe scored all of his 33,643 career points for the Lakers, for a total of 38,895 points for the Bryants.
