Bronny James can’t wait to hit the ground running with his father on the Lakers next season amid his best performance yet in purple and gold.

The 19-year-old guard scored 12 points against the Hawks on Wednesday in the NBA Summer League, only two days after Jaylen Brown’s disparaging comments on his talent, as LA won its first game of the competition with his help. Bronny also made his first career three-pointer against Atlanta.

Clearly buzzing after the game, LeBron’s eldest son was asked about his relationship with his father ‘evolving on and off the court’ in the coming months, now that they are teammates.

‘It’s a big step for both of us. I feel like playing together, going to work together every day is just gonna build on the relationship we already have, build that connection maybe even stronger. I’m excited to get to work about that,’ Bronny said.

The reporter then asked the rookie: ‘What are you looking forward to the most?’
