Heading into his sophomore campaign, the son of the Lakers' future Hall of Fame inductee and 21-time All-Star LeBron James will be aiming to eventually break into the team's rotation after tearing up the G-League for the franchise's South Bay affiliate in 2024-25.

Traditionally, the marquee game on the opening night of summer league features the No. 1 and No. 2 overall picks from the draft playing against each other, but not this year. The NBA scheduled a matchup with Flagg squaring off against the son of the league's all-time leading scorer, LeBron James.

Las Vegas' Thomas & Mack Center was buzzing on Thursday night, when No. 1 overall pick Cooper Flagg and the Dallas Mavericks took on Bronny James and the Los Angeles Lakers.
