We bet you can’t name every father-son combo LeBron James has played against

From his streak of All-Star selections to his standing in the NBA’s all-time scoring list, LeBron James’ longevity and sustained greatness have made way for him to set a number of records that will be hard to break.

Since making his debut in 2003, James has been a part of multiple eras — and generations — of NBA basketball. The fact holds true in more ways than one.

While James maintains the goal of becoming the first active father-son duo when his 18-year-old son Bronny is eligible to join the NBA, he has already played against a number of father-son duos over the course of his career, truly putting his longevity into perspective.

Just how many father-son duos has James faced over the last 20 years? From his head-to-head with Gary Payton in 2004 to a meeting with Jabari Smith Jr. in 2023, here’s a look at the still-growing list.
