Kevin Durant Makes Honest Bronny James Statement
Kevin Durant and LeBron James have competed against each other for nearly two decades.
On Sunday evening, the Phoenix Suns and Los Angeles Lakers will play a preseason game in California.
Before the game, Durant met with the media and was asked about going up against Bronny James (h/t Mark Medina).
Durant: “To see him out on the floor with James Jr. on his back with his dad is crazy to see. Hopefully, I get a chance to get on the floor with Bronny tonight. Just Compete against him. The whole moment is pretty sweet. There’s gonna be a lot of games throughout the year. I’m looking forward to seeing with them.”
