On Wednesday night, the Los Angeles Lakers defeated the Dallas Mavericks 127-110 on ABC, but LeBron James didn’t feel the need to celebrate. With 25 points, eight boards, and eight assists on 10-of-19 shooting (including three triples), he had a terrific game overall.
The 39-year-old, though, was eager to return to his role as a family man as soon as possible. On ESPN, as the Mavericks and Lakers were playing the Arizona Wildcats, LeBron James hurried into the Lakers’ tunnel and announced that he had to see his kid play:
“I need to go see my son’s game really soon,” LeBron shouted as he sped past the Lakers’ employee.

Both of the James family’s professionals were having a ball at one of the finest games of the year. Bronny scored nine points on 4-of-7 shooting in fifteen minutes for the Trojans, while LeBron nearly recorded a triple-double. Bronny had the team record up until that point.

The Trojans have been terrible as a unit, but Bronny James is having a career game right now against the Wildcats. The Trojans are down 18 points against the Wildcats with ten minutes remaining in the half. As of this writing, Bronny’s efforts have been mostly fruitless.
During his post-game interview in the locker room, LeBron James expressed his disgust at witnessing the Trojans strugglе. ‘F-‘ blasted mid-interview by LeBron, who was apparently too engrossed in the game:
Get it, fire it… The ball was caught, man, and LeBron James muttered, “Oh, good pass,” as the reporters looked on.

The Trojans’ only other players to reach double digits, except Bronny, were Kobe Johnson and DJ Rodman, the son of Dennis Rodman. While Johnson scored ten points, Rodman scored sixteen.
In contrast to LeBron James’ Lakers, Bronny’s Trojans had a terrible performance. Once again, Los Angeles strolled past the Mavericks and reached.500. With 28 points, 12 rebounds, and nine assists, Anthony Davis was on the verge of recording his third career triple-double. D’Angelo Russell contributed 29 points, hitting 5-of-7 from beyond the arc.
As a team, the Los Angeles Lakers shot 53.8% from the field, outscoring the Mavericks’ 46.2%. The Los Angeles Lakers shot 33% (12 of 28). Los Angeles’ length and size gave them the defensive upper hand against the Mavericks, who were able to contain Kyrie Irving to just 12 points and effectively shut down Luka Doncic.
The Slovenian superstar still managed a triple-double with 33 points, but it wasn’t a game-changer.
