The Los Angeles Lakers were once again defeated by the Golden State Warriors in a preseason game. But this wasn’t a game fans should be worried about given that the starters only played limited minutes.
However, fans did get a few highlights out of star players and also got to see how the bench players performed. But one thing fans got to see after all four quarters was the family love between Chris Paul and LeBron James.
Well, specifically between Chris Paul and LeBron James’ son, Bronny. James and Paul have been friends since the start of their NBA careers. The two share a special bond and it just shows the way Paul embraced Bronny.
