Bronny James checks in to standing ovation in Cleveland after Cavaliers’ tribute video

Wednesday night, LeBron and Bronny James made their return to Cleveland as members of the Los Angeles Lakers. LeBron, of course, started his legendary career with the Cavaliers and Bronny was born there – meaning the game was a full-circle moment.

Prior to tip-off, the Cavs released a video tribute to the Jameses upon their return. Then, in the fourth quarter, Bronny checked in and received a standing ovation.

It marked Bronny James’ second career appearance with the Lakers as he plays alongside his father. Although he played at Chatsworth (Calif.) Sierra Canyon, he spent most of his life in Cleveland, which added to the special nature of Wednesday’s game.
