Image

They’ve dropped to ninth place in the Western Conference after a crushing 109-80 loss to the Minnesota Timberwolves, their worst of the season.

Bronny James Sets Lakers Record That Even Legends Couldn’t

Image
Photo: Bronny James / Instagram   The Los Angeles Lakers, known for their legendary players and rich history, have made headlines again. This time, it’s not because of LeBron James, but his son, Bronny James . Bronny, who recently joined the Lakers, has already made history—but not for his basketball skills just yet. Bronny and LeBron became the first father-son duo to play for the same NBA team. While Bronny’s time on the court is just beginning, he’s breaking records off the court. His jersey sales have skyrocketed , setting a new Lakers record that even the biggest stars couldn’t reach. After Bronny’s draft, over 500,000 of his jerseys sold, each priced at around $100.
