The Los Angeles Lakers continue their path towards an NBA championship after beating the Houston Rockets, but LeBron James was focused on another Houston star Friday night.
James and Co. took out the Rockets in Game 6 and managed to advance to the Western Conference semifinals. However, reporters were quick to talk to the NBA legend about NFL star Will Anderson Jr. after the game.

The Houston Texans defensive end has become an instant star in the AFC South and even earned a monster payday in recent weeks. Anderson Jr. earned a $150 million contract with Houston after helping the team reach the AFC Playoff in 2025.
However, James’ connection with Anderson Jr. stems from a hilarious side-by-side comparison of the Texans star and one of the NBA greats’ children.
The Texans pass rusher has an uncanny resemblance to James’ oldest child Bronny, who also happens to play with the Lakers. LeBron was quick to get in on the joke after Los Angeles clinched their place in the next round.
“That’s my fourth child,” James said jokingly with reporters. “Him and Bronny are twins and nobody knows it. Me and Savannah been trying to keep it under wraps for a long time.”

Fans were quick to jump in on social media regarding the Bronny look-a-like. However, Anderson Jr. can put the rumors to rest after growing up in Georgia and going on to star with the Alabama Crimson Tide.
Meanwhile, James’ funny encounter between Anderson Jr. actually started during the game when the Lakers forward fell to the floor during a layup attempt. The Texans star was quick to generously help James up from his courtside seat.
