LeBron James' son, Bronny James, and Giannis Antetokounmpo's brother, Thanasis Antetokounmpo, matched up on Saturday. The LA Lakers thrashed the Milwaukee Bucks 119-95 at the Fiserv Forum, while playing on the backend of a back-to-back. The buildup was all about the MVP battle between Luka Doncic and Giannis, but another storyline was added to the blockbuster contest.
Bronny and Thanasis matched up against each other in garbage time, with the result already decided. The two had very different roles on the night as Bronny started for the Lakers, while Thanasis came off the bench and logged his minutes once the game was out of reach.

LeBron James' son marginally outplayed Giannis Antetokounmpo's brother, logging one rebound, one assist and one steal in 10 minutes. On the flipside, Thanasis didn't record a single field goal attempt, finishing with one rebound and one steal in three minutes. Social media erupted after the final buzzer, as fans flooded the internet with hilarious reactions to the Bronny vs. Thanasis showdown.
