In a recent interview with FS1’s Speak For Yourself, Magic Johnson said: “Great moment
 If I had a chance to play with my son, that would’ve been a great moment for me. It was great for basketball. I’m happy that LeBron and Bronny got a chance to see that; hey, I’m not ready yet. Dad said, ‘You’re not ready yet. Go down to the G League, develop, and I think next year you’ll probably be ready for the NBA.’ It was a special moment, and I’m glad we got a chance to see it.”
