Bryce James may be the middle child among LeBron’s children, but that doesn’t make him forgettable in any shape or form. Some would argue that the King’s youngest son has the best latent basketball talent among the future Hall of Famer’s offspring.
Bryce’s older brother is quietly establishing himself in the league. He’s performing well enough in the G League that some are even calling for Bronny to get more touches to further his development and realize his potential.
The idea of LeBron James playing with his two sons is becoming less likely with talk of his retirement becoming more prevalent. However, the latest update on Bryce’s basketball career gives hardcore James fans hope that their idol would fulfill his seemingly impossible dream.
Bryce James commits to the Arizona Wildcats for the 2025-26 season
The second child of the James household had multiple programs vying for the three-star recruit’s signature, with 247Sports listing Duquesne and Ohio State with scholarship offers provided for Bryce. USC was also reported to be interested in him, but Bronny’s performance for the Trojans may have spurned them from making any serious offers.
While it was interesting to see Bryce suit up for his father’s hometown basketball program, he chose to blaze his trail with the Arizona Wildcats. 247Sports’ Eric Bossi writes that the 6’4″ shooting guard, who is among the top 50 shooting guards of the 2025 class, will have glaring issues that must be sorted out once he moves to Tucson:
During the summer, James averaged 8.2 points and 2.4 rebounds a game for his Strive For Greatness club team on the Nike EYBL circuit. As a junior at Sierra Canyon, James played in a reserve role, averaging just over six points a contest. However, he did make 38.5% of his three-point attempts on the year, according to Synergy.
While Bossi noted these problems, he also mentioned that the 6’4″ shooting guard can develop a three-ball if the Arizona Wildcats develop him well enough. Whether he’d be ready for the NBA before his father retires is an entirely different conversation.
