‘We want Bronny’: James Jr gets first NBA points as Cleveland fans welcome him home

Lakers rookie born in Akron when father was with Cavs
First bucket comes in 134-110 loss to Cleveland

With LeBron James on the bench in the final minutes of a blowout loss, Bronny James scored his first points in an NBA game – on a shot that looked just like one from his old man – on Wednesday night in a 134-110 loss to the Cavaliers.

“To see him get his first NBA basket in this arena, where he grew up not too far away from here, that’s an unbelievable moment,” LeBron said. “Unbelievable moment for him, and for our family it’s just pretty cool to be a part of it.”
