LeBron James and his son, LeBron Jr., aka Bronny, made history on Tuesday as the first father-son duo to ever play together in an NBA game.
LeBron, 39, officially welcomed Bronny, 20, to the NBA with a little hazing incident before the season opener at the Crypto.com Arena in LA.
In the Nike commercial, LeBron is seen pouring Fruity Pebbles cereal through the sunroof of Bronnyโs car. When Bronny comes out of the house, he opens the car door and a large amount of cereal pours out on the ground.
โCome on,โ says Bronny, as LeBron pulls up in the backseat of a Maybach. โHey, rook! You better not be late,โ LeBron tells Bronny.
โYo, are you serious?โ says Bronny.
โClean up my driveway. Itโs a mess,โ said LeBron.
โYo, youโre too old for this!โ Bronny yells as LeBron drives away.
Donโt be late ROOK! ????? pic.twitter.com/zxR6O8ewJp

โThank god that wasnโt my car,โ Bronny said about the prank after the Lakersโ win over the Minnesota Timberwolves on Tuesday night.
Bronny played 3 minutes and did not score during the Lakersโ 110-103 win. The arena nearly erupted when LeBron passed the ball to Bronny for a three. But Bronny missed.

After the game, Lebron spoke on winning his first game opening game as a Laker with his son.
โThat moment, us being at the scorerโs table together and checking in together, something I will never forget. No matter how old I get, no matter how my memory may fade as I get older or whatever, I will never forget that moment.โ

Another father-son duo, Ken Griffey Sr. and Ken Griffey Jr., were in the house to see history in the making.

The James and Griffeys embraced on the court before taking photos together.
Ken Jr. and Ken Sr. made history when they played together in 1990. They hit back-to-back home runs and Junior stole a fly ball from his father.
LeBron suggested an equivalent feat could happen if Bronny passed a lob to him for an alley oop and he did the same for Bronny.
Unfortunately, that didnโt happen on Tuesday.
When Bronny missed the open three pointer, his mom, Savannah, was so disappointed that she picked up her $40,000 Hermes purse and left.
