LOS ANGELES — In a historic moment for the NBA, LeBron James and his son, Bronny James, made their debut as the first father-son duo to play in the league together during the game on Tuesday night, where the Los Angeles Lakers triumphed over the Minnesota Timberwolves with a score of 110-103.

At 39 years old, LeBron and his 20-year-old son shared the court for nearly two and a half minutes towards the end of the first half of Bronny’s debut. This monumental occasion marks them not only as the first father and son to compete in the NBA simultaneously, but also on the same team.

LeBron contributed 16 points to the Lakers’ effort, while Anthony Davis showcased an exceptional performance with 36 points and 16 rebounds. Rui Hachimura also added 18 points to the scorecard, playing a key role in the Lakers’ victory.

In a noteworthy beginning to his coaching career, JJ Redick, a veteran of 15 seasons in the NBA, led the Lakers to victory in his first game as head coach.

The Timberwolves were spearheaded by Anthony Edwards, who netted 27 points. This game comes on the heels of what has been the Timberwolves’ best season in two decades. Julius Randle and Donte DiVincenzo added 16 points and 10 points, respectively, in their debuts with the team following the trade that sent Karl-Anthony Towns to New York three weeks prior.

Dalton Knecht, a first-round pick for the Lakers, scored five points in his debut as well.

**Observations**
The Timberwolves are likely facing some transitional challenges after the departure of Towns. Anthony Davis overwhelmed both Randle and Rudy Gobert, with the team needing more scoring support alongside Edwards.

On the other hand, the Lakers demonstrated the advantages of a stable roster by playing disciplined basketball and executing organized defense, orchestrated by Davis.

**Turning Point**
Davis was phenomenal in the closing moments, either scoring or assisting on 13 of the next 15 points after returning to the game with 7:09 remaining. A decisive three-pointer from LeBron sealed the victory for Los Angeles.

**Notable Achievement**
LeBron James officially matched Vince Carter as one of only two players in NBA history to compete in 22 seasons. He ranks sixth in total games played in the league with 1,493, not including his NBA record of 287 playoff games.

**Upcoming Matches**
The Timberwolves will face off against the Sacramento Kings on Thursday.

The Lakers will host the Phoenix Suns on Friday.
