LeBron James jokingly fills Bronny’s car with cereal before they make NBA history

LeBron James reminded Bronny who’s boss by filling his son’s car with cereal in a wild prank before the two made NBA history.

LeBron, 39, and Bronny, 20, became the first father and son to play together in the NBA on Tuesday night in the LA Lakers’ season opener against the Minnesota Timberwolves.

James Jr. was a second-round pick for the Lakers last summer, entering the game next to his father during the second quarter. The pair made their first courtside appearance together earlier this month in a preseason game against the Phoenix Suns.

‘Are you all set? You see the intensity, right? Just play carefree, though,” the father told his son on the bench moments before entering the fray. ‘Don’t worry about mistakes. Just go out there and play hard.

Before that intense moment, it was all fun games with the basketball legend and Nike sharing a clip of him hazing the young rookie before the big game.

LeBron is seen brazenly emptying a final box of Fruity Pebbles through the sunroof of Bronny’s car. The unsuspecting young man is then seen leaving the house and opening the car door, filled to the brim with cereal.

“Hey Rook, you better not be late,” LeBron yells from his own car. A bewildered Bronny says, “Yo, are you serious? Come on, man?

LeBron takes one more shot before walking off with a smile, “Hey, clear my driveway, it’s a mess.”

“Yo, you’re too old for this,” Bronny pleads. ‘What’s going on bruh, hey?’

The father and son received a standing ovation from the crowd inside the Crypto.com Arena on Tuesday night.

Among the spectators were Ken Griffey Sr. and Ken Griffey Jr., who made the same history in Major League Baseball after playing 51 games together for the Seattle Mariners in 1990 and 1991 as the sport’s first father-son duo .

“It’s always been family over everything,” LeBron said next to Bronny after the game.

“I’ve lost a lot of time because of this league, so to be able to have this moment where I’m still working and I can work alongside my son is one of the greatest gifts I’ve received from the man above and me “I’m going to make the most of it.

Bronny said: “Getting up on the scoreboard and registering for the first time was a crazy moment I’ll never forget.

“I’m just so thankful for everything. They gave me an incredible opportunity to come into this league and get better every day and learn every day.”
