LeBron and Bronny James made history in the Lakers preseason game against the Suns by becoming the first father-son duo to share the floor in an NBA game.

While many were ecstatic for the veteran forward and the rookie guard, rapper Camron wasnt as enthusiastic about it.

On the Come and Talk 2 Me podcast, he downplayed the moment and cited Bronnys difficult outing as the reason.

The rookie guard finished the game with 0 points and four turnovers in just 13 minutes.

Camron was especially unimpressed by his +/- of -16 and relayed that the LeBron-Bronny pairing wont move him until the 19-year-old has an impactful game.

He said, Camrons co-host Treasure Stat Baby Wilson pointed out that he should treasure the historic moment for its rarity instead of looking at the stats and the games outcome.

However, the rapper did not buy that argument.

He reminisced about seeing the father-son duo of Ken Griffey Jr.

and Ken Griffey Sr.

play for the Seattle Mariners in the early 1990s during his teenage years.

Camron pointed out that the feat was more impressive because Ken Jr.

surpassed his father as a player.

He finished his career with 13 All-Star appearances, 10 more than Ken Sr.

He said, Bronny will have to exceed all expectations, perhaps his own, to surpass his fathers legacy.

For now, hes focusing on cracking the Lakers rotation, which wont be easy.

Bronny James has set out on a tenuous journey The 19-year-old has been a non-factor offensively during the preseason.

He has shot 14.2% from the field and his +/- of -28 in the two games is a huge concern.

The young guard has struggled to create his shots and doesnt have the ability to become a pass-first guard, making him a liability on the offensive end.

At 6-foot-2, he doesnt have the same physical gifts as his father, but still, he has shown some promise on the defensive end.

Hell likely never be as impactful as LeBron.

However, Bronny can make a name for himself as a defensive stopper who can provide occasional scoring.

As of now, theres little chance hed play a lot in his rookie season.

He will probably need a stint in the G-League to hone his skills and become a viable option for head coach JJ Redick..
