NBA: Bronny James assists father LeBron in Los Angeles Lakers win
Bronny James passes parent LeBron for the first time in NBA history from son to father as the Los Angeles Lakers beat the Golden State Warriors 119-103.
The 19-year-old Bronny stole possession and passed to LeBron, who raced the length of the court for an uncontested dunk, part of the 41-year-old’s 26-point contribution.
The pair recorded the first-ever father-to-son assist in a match against the Brooklyn Nets last month.
LeBron also added 11 assists, while Bronny scored 10 points with three assists, helping the Lakers defeat their in-state rivals.
The Lakers are fourth in the Eastern Conference while the Warriors are 10th, with both having already qualified for the post-season play-offs starting on April 18.
Elsewhere, looking to put pressure on their rivals in the Western Conference, the New York Knicks won 112–106 against the Boston Celtics, with Josh Hart scoring 26 points.
Both teams are placed third and second respectively in the standings with two matches left to be played in the regular season.
The Toronto Raptors won 128-114 against the Miami Heat, while the Houston Rockets won 113-102 against the Philadelphia 76ers to strengthen their chances of making the play-offs.
In matches between teams already eliminated from postseason competition, the Chicago Bulls won 119–108 against the Washington Wizards, while the Indiana Pacers defeated the Brooklyn Nets 123–94.
