Bronny is currently enjoying his first taste of professional ball after being selected as the No. 55 pick in last month’s NBA Draft.
The Call of Duty tournament has become an annual event at the Las Vegas Summer League.
Players from teams across the NBA entered Sunday’s tournament, with $10,000 up for grabs.
Bronny took on Charlotte Hornets forward Grant Williams in a final face-off for the cash and a custom-made Call of Duty championship belt.
The pair battled in a two-minute drill contest with Bronny taking top spot with a total of 84 points, per CBS.
Bronny’s dad and teammate LeBron is currently away with Team USA ahead of the Olympic Games in Paris.
But he took time out to celebrate his son’s triumph with his 160 million Instagram fans.
‘Ayyyeeee! He really like that on that Duty!” LeBron wrote, captioning a snap of Bronny with a gamepad and headphones.
On the court, Bronny’s tough start to life in a Lakers uniform continued on Monday night.
The Lakers faced off with the Boston Celtics in Vegas, going down 88-74.
Bronny was given a vociferous reception by fans at the Thomas & Mack Center.
He spent 25 minutes on the court but again struggled from the field.
The former USC Trojan ended the game with three rebounds, two points, one assist, and one block.
He again failed to land a shot from 3-point range, extending his streak to 0-15 across the entire Summer League.
“I just feel like I’m in a little slump right now,” Bronny said following Game 3 on Saturday.
“My shot wasn’t falling today but I just need to continue to get the reps in and get better.”
The 19-year-old has signed a guaranteed four-year, $7.9 million deal with the Lakers.
His dad LeBron, 39, is currently the oldest active player in the NBA.
Should the pair share a court next season, they will be the first father-son duo to ever do so in league history.
