LeBron James, Stephen Curry, Jay Morant and others in the NBA react to Bronny James’ viral poster dunk

Like father, like son.

On Monday, LeBron James’ son, Bronny, had social media timelines buzzing everywhere after throwing down a vicious dunk on a fast break in a game overseas.

Bronny has been competing for California Basketball Club in a European basketball tour, making headlines on a few different occasions. This highlight transcended continents as his poster dunk quickly went viral.

His father — who was watching live from home — was the very first person to react on social media.

After that tweet, it didn’t take very long for the rest of the internet to catch on.

Jazz All-Star guard Donovan Mitchell weighed in…

…as did reigning Finals MVP Stephen Curry.

Ja Morant, who is no stranger to throwing down poster dunks, was also impressed with Bronny’s throwdown.

Veterans and former NBA players like Isaiah Thomas, Jamal Crawford and Kendrick Perkins all had something to say on the poster slam, too.

The dunk, naturally, drew immediate comparisons to LeBron, who threw down a very similar dunk a few years ago as a member of the Cavaliers.

This was just another proud father moment for LeBron, who just last week expressed how he was getting emotional watching Bronny and his youngest son, Bryce, share the court for the first time.

There will be more to come on that front shortly as Bronny and Bryce get set for their senior and sophomore seasons, respectively, at Sierra Canyon High School this upcoming year.
