Sunday’s Lakers preseason game against the Phoenix Suns has already gone viral. The NBA community witnessed history as LeBron James and his son Bronny James became the first father-son duo to share the court.
But before that, a touching moment—a handshake between LeBron James and Kevin Durant—grasped everyone’s eyes and hearts.
The two NBA stars, who are known for their strong competition and outstanding respect for each other, met on the court just before the preseason game at Acrisure Arena.
Since they just led Team USA to a gold title at the 2024 Olympics in Paris, their pregame embrace showed just how happy the Olympic teammates were to be reunited on the NBA court.
The Lakers lost the preseason game by a tiny margin because coach JJ Redick took a risk. Still, everyone was talking about how LeBron and Bronny shared the court and how sweet it was when Bron and KD shared a moment.
Super excited fans quickly shared their feelings on social media.
