During the third quarter of the Los Angeles Lakers’ series-clinching Game 6 road win over the Houston Rockets on Friday night, LeBron James hit the deck after Jabari Smith Jr. rejected him on the break.
Despite being robbed of transition points, James was beaming as Houston Texans star defensive end Will Anderson Jr. helped him up from the floor.
Aside from his game-wrecking pass-rushing ability, Anderson is now famously known for his uncanny resemblance to Bronny James.
James and Anderson dapped each other up before James returned to what became a 98-78 victory, in which the 22-time All-Star piled up 28 points, 8 assists and 7 rebounds.
Here’s another view of the humorous run-in:
“What was the moment like?” James said postgame, via the Houston Chronicle’s Jonathan Alexander. “The moment was pretty cool. Yeah, I just said it was good to see him.”
Then James said facetiously: “That’s my fourth child. Yeah, him and Bronny are twins, and don’t nobody know it. Me and Savannah have been trying to keep it under wraps for a long time.”
That remark drew laughter from reporters surrounding James’ locker. James, basking in a first-round playoff series victory at 41 years old and in his NBA-record 23rd season, smiled while quickly following up his joke with the obvious clarification.
