Bronny and Bryce's team, Sierra Canyon beat Kiyan's Christ the King 62-51 to move to a 7-1 record for the season.

With the two NBA legends in attendance, fans thronged to the venue to see how the second generation will play and if they could one day see them in the NBA.

Kiyan Anthony ended with 10 points, but he was slightly overshadowed by the impressive display of Bronny James, who had 12 points.

LeBron is enjoying a solid 20th season in the NBA, while Carmelo Anthony has been in and out of the league in the last few years, but will still go down as one of the best scorers of all time.

LeBron and Carmelo's history

The game was 20 years in the making, as their fathers faced off in a highly-anticipated and historic high school game in February 2002 in front of 11,000 fans, per ESPN.

Anthony's Oak Hill Academy beat James' St. Vincent-St. Mary 72-66. James, the nation's top prospect at the time, scored 36 points while Anthony had 34 points.

Carmelo is a free agent after leaving the Lakers last season alongside LeBron, according to Sporting News. The Lakers failed to make the playoffs, meaning his window to win an NBA championship is closing.

LeBron shows off new watch

Sports Brief earlier reported on LeBron showing off his watch - a new $110,000 Audemars Piguet timepiece which he has already given a nickname.

The NBA star and serial watch collector showed off his latest acquisition, the legendary 41mm Perpetual Calendar Royal Oak model, meticulously stored in a blueberry-blue ceramic case.

The applied indices and facetted hands are 18-carat white gold and contain luminescent material, with a 22-carat gold open-worked oscillating weight.
