Bronny James' viral dunk in his G League outing on Friday continues to be a hot topic, with a slow-mo video of the play even drawing more attention.

James had a career night as he led the South Bay Lakers to the 122-110 victory over the Rip City Remix in El Segundo. He finished with 31 points, two rebounds, three assists and two steals, while shooting 10-of-22 from the field including 5-of-11 from 3-point territory.

The 20-year-old delivered his best play of the game in the third quarter when he found himself with an open path to the basket. James proceeded to throw down an incredible dunk, all while embarrassing a defender who tried to block his attempt.

Hoop Central shared a slow-motion video of the play, showing clearly how James initially took his defender out with his ball-handling before running to the basket for the throw-down.

Sure enough, fans were impressed by his dunk, with many taking to the comment section of Hoop Central's post to share their reactions.

"SHEEEEESH," a fan wrote in disbelief. Another one said, "Bronny getting up."

"LeGenetics," a commenter added. A fourth follower stated, "Young king."

Others compared him to his father, LeBron James, with one saying, "Bronny looking like daddy LeBron James."

"JUST LIKE HIS DAD!!!! WOW I AM AMAZED!!!" a supporter shared.

While Bronny James still has a lot of work to do in order to become a significant part of the Lakers' rotation, it's clear he's working hard and taking advantage of every opportunity he gets.

Hopefully, fans will get to see the youngster deliver a similar highlight play in the NBA with the Lakers.
