Los Angeles Lakers superstar LeBron James and his son, rookie Bronny James, played next to each other during an NBA preseason game.

It was a moment that was literally decades in the making, as Bronny actually turned 20 the same night the performance took place.

Bronny, who the Lakers selected in the second round of the 2024 NBA Draft, will likely soon become the first player in league history to ever play alongside his father in an NBA regular season game.

But after the preseason performance against the Suns, LeBron responded perfectly to the moment.

He tweeted the four words: “Wow, that was surreal,” followed by a few emphatic emojis.

All words in his tweet were capitalized and he also added two exclamation points for emphasis.

Shams replaces Woj

When we found out Woj was leaving ESPN, it was only a matter of time

“While it's not exactly a huge surprise, Shams Charania will replace his former mentor Adrian Wojnarowski as ESPN's top NBA insider.

Charania was immediately considered a top candidate for the position alongside several interesting internal candidates already working for the company after Woj's shocking announcement that he was retiring from the sports press and would instead serve as general manager for the St. Bonaventure men's basketball team would work.

After Woj stepped down from his reporting duties, Charania was the obvious choice as his successor and was the first to break some of the biggest stories in recent weeks – including Karl-Anthony Towns' trade to the New York Knicks.“
