LeBron James has played against almost everyone, but even he was left completely out of the loop on this NBA lineage.
NBA crossovers are wild, and it’s not just about guys breaking ankles with a sick dribble move on the court. There’s a crazy amount of family bloodlines running through the league if you look at actual relatives.

LeBron James finds out that RJ Barrett is Steve Nash’s godson
76ers star LeBron James was recently caught completely off guard upon realizing that NBA star RJ Barrett is the godson of Steve Nash on the Mind The Game podcast.
Steve Nash: “And shout out RJ Barrett, too. My godson. Shout out to my godson.”

LeBron: “I love that. See, I shout him out. I didn’t even know that.”
Steve Nash: “My closest friends and teammates for many years. So there it is.”
As of October 2026, RJ Barrett is balling out as a key player for the Toronto Raptors. Over the 2025-26 regular season, he put up solid numbers with roughly 19.3 points, 5.3 rebounds, and 3.3 assists per game while shooting nearly 49% from the field.
