LeBron James and Son Bronny Become First Father-Son Duo to Play Together in NBA Game, Madonna's Brother Christopher Ciccone Dies

LeBron James and son Bronny become first father-son duo to play side by side in NBA history.

Sunday night was one for the NBA history books as the Los Angeles Lakers faced the Phoenix Suns in the NBA preseason.

Lakers legend LeBron James was joined on the court by son Bronny in the second half of the game, marking the younger James' professional debut, and making them the first ever father-son pair to play alongside each other in the league.

While Bronny's time on the court was short lived at 4 minutes and 9 seconds, the moment was special for everyone watching and participating, especially for King James himself.

The 39-year-old all-star took to X, formerly Twitter, to express his emotions following the game, writing 'WOW THAT WAS SURREAL!!'

Artistic talent and brother of Madonna Christopher Ciccone dies at 63 following cancer battle.

The queen of pop took to social media to memorialize her brother, sharing a carousel of photos from throughout the years and paying tribute to their close relationship.

She addressed his battle with cancer in the post, writing in the lengthy caption 'I did my best to keep him alive as long as possible.

He was in so much pain towards the end.

Once again, we held hands We closed our eyes and we danced.

Together.

I'm glad he's not suffering anymore.

There will never be anyone like him.

I know he's dancing somewhere.'

Ciccone's death comes just a short two weeks after the siblings' stepmother, Joan Clare Ciccone, also passed from cancer.
