On Wednesday, LeBron James and his son Bronny had quite different experiences on the basketball floor over the course of the game.

The Los Angeles Lakers, led by LeBron James, suffered their ninth consecutive loss in their previous twelve games as they were defeated by the Miami Heat by a score of 110-96 on Wednesday night.

The fact that Miami was unable to deploy Jimmy Butler for the sixth time in seven games due to soreness in his right foot made the situation even more difficult.

Despite the fact that he was only able to score 12 points and shoot 6 of 18 for Los Angeles, LeBron James contributed nine assists.

As the Lakers continue to suffer despite winning the NBA in-season tournament a month ago, they have now lost their third straight game. Austin Reaves added 24 points to his scoring total, and Anthony Davis scored 29 points while also grabbing 17 rebounds.

LeBron James and son Bronny endured very different nights on the court on Wednesday

Los Angeles was able to limit LeBron James to 12 points on 6-of-18 shooting, but he did add nine assists to his total.

Following their victory over the Indiana Pacers in the championship game, Los Angeles has a record of 3-9 since the 12th of December.

Doc Rivers expressed his uncertainty on the future of Darvin Ham as the coach of the Los Angeles Lakers after the team’s most recent terrible performance.

In an interview with ESPN, the former coach of the Clippers and the 76ers stated that Darvin Ham is in risk of losing his job. The Lakers appear to have a well-rounded roster.

Another person who criticized James and the Lakers was Skip Bayless. He posted the following on X: “Good Lord, Bron, you just allowed your team to lose by 14 points to the Heat without Jimmy Butler! You just let them get outscored 38-29 in the fourth quarter!”

You were defeated by Duncan Robinson, who had the appearance of an algebra instructor from a high school!

You had a score of 0-6 from 3 inspiring your team to shoot 13% from 3. Your team is now 17-18!’

  

Bronny connected with team-mate Isaiah Collier to score an outrageous alley-oop dunk

 

Meanwhile, less than three miles across Los Angeles, Bronny’s fine return to the USC team continued as they claimed an 82-74 victory over Cal.

Bronny, who suffered a cardiac arrest in July, wound up with 10 points as USC increased its winning streak over the Golden Bears to 11 games.

That included an outrageous alley-oop dunk as he connected with team-mate – and potential No. 1 NBA draft pick – Isaiah Collier.

Collier stole the ball and dribbled down the court, laying up a perfect pass for Bronny to put away as the crowd went wild.

He also made two free throws with 2.7 seconds left to seal the win.
