LeBron James’ younger son, Bryce, steals the spotlight in a recent high school basketball game at USC’s Galen Center. Making his presence felt during the first quarter of the Chosen1 Invitational between Sierra Canyon and Coronado, Bryce showcases his skills while his father and family watch from courtside.
Bryce’s older brother, Bronny, made his return to basketball on the same floor just five months ago after a heart arrest. Unfortunately, he was unable to attend his brother’s game as he was on the road with his USC squad for a Sunday afternoon matchup against Auburn.
Sierra Canyon’s team maintains their dominant play, securing a decisive 59-point victory. On Saturday night, they take an early lead and go on to win with a score of 83-55 over Coronado. Bryce James, a 6-foot-4 shooting guard, contributes three assists, eight points (including two from beyond the arc), and shoots at a 45% field goal percentage in 21 minutes of action.
The game-changer comes with Sierra Canyon’s halftime lead of 46-18. Junior wing Bryce Cofield leads the team in scoring with 21 points, 8 rebounds, and 7 assists. Thanks to their outstanding performance, Sierra Canyon’s record now stands at 10-1. In their upcoming Santa Barbara Tournament, they will face Burroughs High School as their next opponent.
Similar to his brother Bronny, Bryce James keeps a low profile during the recruiting process. He has previously made unofficial visits to USC and Ohio State. Colleges and scouts are taking notice of his abilities, particularly his jump shooting and his smooth touch around the basket.
According to LeBron James, Bryce James’ pocket passing abilities are top-notch. As his son’s basketball career progresses, LeBron James consistently expresses his love and support. Taking to Instagram, the Los Angeles Lakers player recently praised Bryce’s basketball talents, specifically highlighting his brilliant pocket pass.
Bryce’s impressive play in Sierra Canyon’s recent victory, which showcased more noteworthy plays beyond the acclaimed pocket pass, has garnered recognition. As a junior, Bryce has impressed major institutions with his steady growth as a player, receiving offers from Ohio State and Duquesne, along with interest from USC. 247Sports currently rates Bryce as a 3-star prоspect due to his promising skills, especially in passing and shooting.
This goes beyond parental pride; it’s the stamp of approval from an accomplished expert—something LeBron James is providing. As Bryce continues to play high school basketball, his already impressive skill set will continue to develop, paving the way for a professional basketball career.
