LeBron James sent out a two-word message after his son - and teammate - Bronny put in a dominant display in his 2025 Summer League debut.

Bronny took to the floor on Sunday night and scored 10 points in 11 minutes against the Miami Heat - including a stunning one-handed dunk in the first quarter. 

A clip of the incident went viral on social media as fans watched the second-year guard steal the ball off the Heat before transitioning into a fast break. 

The Lakers star drove down the court before launching himself into the air - just past the free throw line - and performing the impressive dunk. 

It was a moment that left some fans in awe and excited about the season ahead for Bronny - while dad LeBron clearly shared that sentiment. 

The NBA legend posted an Instagram story with a screenshot of the dunk along with the caption: 'Bronny showtime'.

The 20-year-old heads into the new season after making 27 outings in his rookie season for the Lakers - where he averaged 2.3 points in 6.7 minutes per game.

In his G League performances, however, Bronny averaged 21.9 points, 5.5 assists and 5.1 rebounds from his 11 games.

The youngster, recently, offered a coy response when asked about the future of his father - who will become an unrestricted free agent in 2026.

Last week, LeBron officially opted into his $52.6million player option for the upcoming season but, by doing so, it raised questions about his future beyond 2025-26.

When asked about LeBron's future, Bronny said: 'I said, 'I have no idea what you're talking about. 

'I don´t really pay attention to that stuff. There´s a lot of stuff going around that I don´t pay attention to.' 

'We don´t really talk about that much, but I think when stuff like that does come up, he just tells me to not worry about it, not even pay attention to it. 

'Just lock in to what you have going on right now, and that's what's going to get me better and keep me focused. I think it's good that he tells me not to pay attention to that stuff.'
