LeBron and Bronny James photo: Get a first look at Lakers father-son duo from media day

Like father, like son.

Months after the Lakers selected Bronny James with the 55th pick in the 2024 NBA Draft, he finally got a chance to pose with his father, LeBron James, this time in Los Angeles' official strip.

The father-son duo put on their best Zoolander impression during Lakers media day, turning Los Angeles' photo studio as if it were a catwalk.

Here's a first look at the two James men.

LeBron and Bronny James made quite the impression in front of big league cameras on Monday afternoon. The duo, separated by some 20 years of life experience, shared the spotlight.

Some social media users noted the parallels between the latest shots of LeBron and Bronny and shots that emerged some 20 years ago.

Los Angeles' media day was filled with pictures and soundbites centered around LeBron and Bronny's kindred relationship.

The two shared a moment while talking about their expectations for the season with Spectrum Sportsnet. While reminiscing over their collective journeys to the top level of professional basketball, Bronny discussed guarding his father during a recent pickup game.

Bronny suggested his dad had been a little too forceful while guarding him. Bron disagreed, firing off a classic line in his rebuttal.

"He slapped my whole arm," Bronny James said.

"Did they call it?" LeBron queried, prompting his son to concede that he likely wouldn't receive a superstar's whistle at this point of his career.

"Man, you're a rook anyways," LeBron added.

Bronny is indeed a rookie, but he's also LeBron's rookie. And if Monday was any indication, the pairing will have plenty of memories to share with one another in the coming few months.
