He hasnÂĄt played a single minute of college basketball yet, but Bryce James is already all over the news. Thatâs what happens when youâre LeBron Jamesâ son, even if youâre not a star prospect.
The three-star recruit recently sent the internet into a frenzy. He shockingly announced his commitment to play at Arizona. That means he will officially be leaving the household for at least one year.
Needless to say, thatâs an emotional moment for any parent, even if youâre LeBron and Savannah James. With that in mind, they took to Instagram to share their support for their young son.

Bronny James drew plenty of criticism for the way he entered the league. He clearly wasnât ready after a brief tenure in college, not to mention how Rich Paul and James handled his draft situation.

Bryce isnât a highly-touted prospect, either. Hopefully, now that James wonât likely be around to play with him, they will allow him to work on his game and develop before even thinking of turning pro, if at all.
