        


<p><strong><a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/lebron-james" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">LeBron James</a> </strong>has established himself as the personification on longevity. He’s played for so long, that the <strong>Los Angeles Lakers</strong> even drafted his first son, <strong>Bronny James</strong>, to play with his father. When asked if he’ll wait for <strong>Bryce James</strong>, the <strong>NBA </strong>legend gave a clear answer.</p>



<p>According to Mark Medina of Athlon Sports and Fox Sports Radio, LeBron said, “<strong><em>I’m not waiting on Bryce. I don’t know his timeline</em>.</strong>” The message is clear, if LeBron is still playing when Bryce arrives in the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nba" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">NBA</a>, it’s because the timelines aligned, not because LeBron waited for his second son, who is entering his first season of collegiate basketball.</p>



<p>Bryce James is a way different player than <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/bronny-james" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Bronny James</a>. Bronny came into the league as a lockdown perimeter defender, <strong>Bryce is more of an offensive player, according to reports.</strong></p>



<h2>What’s Bryce James’ player profile?</h2>



<p>Among his player profile, <strong>Bryce’s strengths are shooting, especially on his three-point shooting and pull-up jumpers</strong>, his fundamentals and IQ, which are not surprising given who his father is. He committed to the Arizona Wildcats for his college career.</p>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><figure class="image"><img loading="lazy" width="1024" height="576" src="https://ds-images.bolavip.com/news/image?src=https://images.bolavip.com/webp/en/full/BUS_20250929_BUS_500592_Bryce-James-1024x576_088f5933.webp&amp;width=1024&amp;height=576" alt="Bryce James #5 of the Sierra Canyon Trailblazers" class="wp-image-304772" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px"></figure><figcaption>Bryce James #5 of the Sierra Canyon Trailblazers</figcaption></figure>



<p><strong>Bryce stands at 6-foot-4 and is 18 years old</strong>. He is a three-star recruit, hence the NBA is not a given. However, his name certainly helps him. Arizona is not a blue blood program, so <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/bryce-james" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Bryce</a> will have to earn the eyeballs on him with pure hoops.</p>

<h2>How did Bronny James fare in his rookie year?</h2>



<p>If Bryce wants to get to the NBA, his brother might be the parameter or the standard he has to follow. Bronny’s rookie year wasn’t nothing stellar, but he showed glimpses. <strong>He played 27 games, averaging 2.3 points per game</strong>. </p>



<p>It was in the G-League, however, where he showed signs of potential. <strong>He played 11 games, scored 21.9 ppg in 34.2 minutes a night, shot 38% from three and averaged 5.5 assists and 1.9 steals.</strong> The G-League was Bronny’s stage, if he can keep developing, he could become a good rotational piece. Those are the steps his brother Bryce need to follow.</p>

<p>Something that will have college basketball fans paying close attention this season is the freshman campaign of<strong> Bryce James </strong>with the <strong>Arizona Wildcats</strong> — one of the most storied programs in <strong>NCAA </strong>history. For any player, joining the Wildcats is a major step, and James arrives as part of a star-studded recruiting class ranked No. 3 in the 2025 cycle by 247Sports. But his father, <strong><a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/lebron-james">LeBron James</a></strong>, has also issued a word of caution.</p>



<p>While his older brother Bronny played his freshman season at USC, Bryce will make his college debut this fall for the Wildcats. During his first media availability since arriving in Tucson, <strong>Bryce shared the advice his father gave him heading into his first year of college basketball.</strong></p>



<p><em>“Just <strong>working hard and coming in and doing what you do best</strong>,”</em> James said Tuesday. <em>“Making sure if you’re not having some good days, <strong>always have to stay positive. </strong>If you miss a shot, maybe get a turnover or something, don’t hang your head down. <strong>Always keep your head up. Push through and stay positive</strong>.”</em></p>



<p>James, a three-star recruit out of Sierra Canyon High School in Chatsworth, California, committed to Arizona earlier this year after receiving offers from Duquesne and Ohio State. <strong>He is one of six incoming freshmen for the Wildcats, a group that also features five-star guard Brayden Burries and five-star forward Koa Peat.</strong></p>



<div class="ck-twitter"><blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-media-max-width="560"><p lang="en" dir="ltr">“Always keep your head up.”<br><br>Arizona’s Bryce James on advice from his dad, LeBron James:<a href="https://twitter.com/Sports360AZ?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">@Sports360AZ</a> <a href="https://twitter.com/KingJames?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">@KingJames</a> <a href="https://t.co/Lst5f8vsQw">pic.twitter.com/Lst5f8vsQw</a></p>— Eliav Gabay (@eliavgabay) <a href="https://twitter.com/eliavgabay/status/1955390649488007603?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">August 12, 2025</a></blockquote></div> 



<h2>Will we see LeBron play alongside both of his sons?</h2>



<p>It’s difficult to say whether LeBron will share the court with both <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/BRYCE-JAMES">Bryce</a> and Bronny, but it’s not impossible. <strong>If LeBron remains healthy and productive for the upcoming NBA season</strong>, and follows through on speculation that he could play one or two more years, <strong>the scenario could unfold</strong>. Should it happen, it <strong>would be a landmark moment in sports history</strong>.</p>


        <div class="wp_fsn_relatedlinks" id="BUS#/nba/warriors-stephen-curry-teammate-reveals-what-lebron-james-is-like-off-the-nba-court"></div>

        

        


<p>Bryce faces his own challenging path, not only because of the pressure of being the son of one of basketball’s greatest players, <strong>but also because many consider him the more talented of the James brothers</strong>. That perception only increases the expectations — and now, <strong>those expectations will be tested in the Wildcats program.</strong></p>



<h2>What to expect from Bryce and Arizona</h2>



<p><strong>It remains unclear how much playing time James will earn this <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/college-basketball">NCAAB</a> season in Arizona’s rotation, particularly with the Wildcats’ crowded backcourt</strong>. Star guard Jaden Bradley is projected to play a major role after starting all 37 games last season, while Anthony Dell’Orso, who started 28 games, is also expected to hold a starting spot.</p>



<p><em>“<strong>We treat Bryce just like we treat every other guy</strong>,”</em> Arizona head coach Tommy Lloyd said earlier this summer. <em>“<strong>He shows up every day with a smile on his face</strong>. My hope for him is that everybody gives him space and lets him develop into his own version of Bryce James. <strong>He is a great young man, so let’s let that come out and not overwhelm him with stuff he has no control over</strong>.”</em></p>



<p>The Wildcats finished <strong>24-13 overall (14-6 Big 12) during their first season in the conference</strong>, with their campaign ending in a 100-93 loss to Duke in the Sweet 16. Arizona enters this year tied for the 16th-best odds to win the <strong>2026 national championship, alongside UCLA, Illinois, Iowa State and Gonzaga</strong>, according to FanDuel.</p>

<p>As he prepares for his freshman season in college, <strong>Bryce James</strong> is spending quality time with his teammates. LeBron James’ younger son signed with the Arizona Wildcats after a busy high school career that included stints at Sierra Canyon, Campbell Hall, and Notre Dame High School.</p>



<p>While the new <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/college-basketball" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">college basketball</a> season arrives, James is having fun, even by trying <strong>TikTok Dances</strong>. The 18-year-old appeared dancing with teammates Koa Peat and Brayden Burries on social media. A clip shared on a James’ Instagram fan page on Friday shows the trio of players doing a choreographed dance.&nbsp;</p>



<p>It starts with the trio doing synchronized moves before <strong>they take turns to display their respective moves</strong>. Two more players join the dance before everybody joins the action on camera.&nbsp;</p>



<h2>Bryce James enjoys life with his friends</h2>



<p>“<strong><em>This tough 🕺 @_justbryce @carterdbryant @braydenburries0,” </em></strong>the caption read, in a post that garnered thousands of likes in no time—including that of LeBron.</p>

<p>Contrary to his older brother, Bronny James, Bryce decided to leave the nest and attend a college outside of California. In 2022, he <strong>signed an NIL deal with Klutch Sports,</strong> the same agency that represents his father.</p>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><figure class="image"><img loading="lazy" width="1024" height="609" src="https://ds-images.bolavip.com/news/image?src=https://images.bolavip.com/webp/en/full/BUS_20250730_BUS_451242_image-27-1024x609_cbb939de.webp&amp;width=1024&amp;height=609" alt="" class="wp-image-451871" srcset="https://images.futbolsites.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2025/07/31120321/image-27-1024x609.png 1024w, https://images.futbolsites.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2025/07/31120321/image-27-300x178.png 300w, https://images.futbolsites.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2025/07/31120321/image-27-768x457.png 768w, https://images.futbolsites.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2025/07/31120321/image-27.png 1080w" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px"></figure></figure>



<p>Ranked <strong>257 overall by 247Sports </strong>in the class of 2025, James is ready to start his college career. It’s unclear if he’ll be a one-and-done like his brother, more so considering that he’s a part of a stacked class.</p>

Bryce James breaks the internet with dancing video

<p>Just last year, the Los Angeles Lakers made the rounds for their decision to draft Bronny James, making him and his father, LeBron, <strong>the first father-son duo to play together in NBA history.</strong></p>



<p>That’s why Andrew Peters of Bleacher Report believes the same could happen to <strong>Bryce</strong>, who’s about to make his college basketball debut with the Arizona Wildcats:</p>



<p><strong><em>“The most obvious landing spot for Bryce is his father and brother’s team, the Los Angeles Lakers,”</em></strong> wrote Peters. “<em>The Lakers took Bronny in the second round a year ago and were seemingly adamant about getting him in that spot. Bronny’s agent, Rich Paul reportedly told teams that if they selected Bronny, he would go play in Australia.”</em></p>



<h2>The Lakers might not want Bryce James</h2>



<p>Of course, with the Lakers shifting their attention towards<strong> Luka Doncic</strong>, perhaps they might not feel as obligated to comply with James and Rich Paul’s draft demands:</p>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><figure class="image"><img loading="lazy" width="1024" height="576" src="https://ds-images.bolavip.com/news/image?src=https://images.bolavip.com/webp/en/full/BUS_20250724_BUS_447509_Bryce-James-College-Basketball-1024x576_f17e4312.webp&amp;width=1024&amp;height=576" alt="Bryce James smiling" class="wp-image-282061" srcset="https://images.futbolsites.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/11/27143344/Bryce-James-College-Basketball-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https://images.futbolsites.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/11/27143344/Bryce-James-College-Basketball-300x169.jpg 300w, https://images.futbolsites.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/11/27143344/Bryce-James-College-Basketball-768x432.jpg 768w, https://images.futbolsites.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/11/27143344/Bryce-James-College-Basketball-1536x864.jpg 1536w, https://images.futbolsites.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/11/27143344/Bryce-James-College-Basketball-740x416.jpg 740w, https://images.futbolsites.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/11/27143344/Bryce-James-College-Basketball-490x275.jpg 490w, https://images.futbolsites.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/11/27143344/Bryce-James-College-Basketball-250x140.jpg 250w, https://images.futbolsites.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/11/27143344/Bryce-James-College-Basketball.jpg 1920w" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px"></figure><figcaption>Bryce James attends a basketball game between the Los Angeles Lakers and the Minnesota Timberwolves at Crypto.com Arena on October 22, 2024 in Los Angeles, California.</figcaption></figure>



<p><em>“It’s hard to say whether Los Angeles would once again be that committed to drafting one of LeBron’s sons,<strong> but if Bryce is available when it’s the Lakers’ turn to draft, it seems unlikely they would pass on him,</strong></em>” Peters wrote.</p>



<p>The Lakers and James drew strong criticism for how they handled Bronny’s situation, <strong>as he clearly wasn’t ready.</strong> Whether the same will happen with Bryce remains to be seen.</p>

Bleacher Report predicts Bryce James’ unsurprising top NBA destination

Bleacher Report predicts Bryce James' unsurprising top NBA destination - Bolavip US

<p><strong><a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/lebron-james">LeBron James</a></strong> is set to begin his 23rd season in the <strong>NBA </strong>this year with the <strong>Los Angeles Lakers</strong>, breaking the all-time record he currently shares with <strong>Vince Carter</strong>. However, retirement may be approaching, judging by the words of his own son, <strong>Bryce</strong>.</p>



<p>The 18-year-old guard recently held an <em>Instagram Live</em> session, where he was asked about the possibility of playing alongside his father in the NBA—just as his brother Bronny did during the 2024-25 season with the <strong><a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/los-angeles-lakers">Lakers</a></strong> and is likely to do again next year.</p>



<p><em><strong>“They said my dad still gonna be in the league when I get drafted… I</strong> ain’t gonna lie, that’s OD,<strong>”</strong></em> <strong><a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/bryce-james">Bryce</a></strong> said immediately. <em><strong>“</strong>Waiting until I… nah, that’s too much… <strong>That’s too much. No. No. He’s gonna be 42, bro.”</strong></em></p>



<p>LeBron’s second son is just beginning his journey in college basketball. He committed to the <strong>University of Arizona</strong> to play with the <strong>Wildcats </strong>less than three months ago and has yet to begin competing there.</p>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><figure class="image"><img loading="lazy" width="1024" height="576" src="https://ds-images.bolavip.com/news/image?src=https://images.bolavip.com/webp/en/full/BUS_20250710_BUS_438242_bryce-james-1024x576_b556cb78.webp&amp;width=1024&amp;height=576" alt="Bryce James has been hooping with Sierra Canyon" class="wp-image-428945" srcset="https://images.futbolsites.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2025/06/29112653/bryce-james-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https://images.futbolsites.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2025/06/29112653/bryce-james-300x169.jpg 300w, https://images.futbolsites.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2025/06/29112653/bryce-james-768x432.jpg 768w, https://images.futbolsites.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2025/06/29112653/bryce-james-1536x864.jpg 1536w, https://images.futbolsites.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2025/06/29112653/bryce-james-740x416.jpg 740w, https://images.futbolsites.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2025/06/29112653/bryce-james-490x275.jpg 490w, https://images.futbolsites.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2025/06/29112653/bryce-james-250x140.jpg 250w, https://images.futbolsites.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2025/06/29112653/bryce-james.jpg 1920w" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px"></figure><figcaption>Bryce James will start his college career with the Wildcats this year</figcaption></figure>



<p>At the same time, his father is preparing to begin another season with the Lakers, during which he’ll turn 41 at the end of December. That means their timelines remain far apart for now, making it difficult to imagine them sharing the court in the future.</p>


        <div class="wp_fsn_relatedlinks" id="BUS#/nba/nba-insider-reveals-key-detail-about-los-angeles-lakers-and-lebron-james-that-could-impact-his-future"></div>

        

        


<p>According to Bryce’s comments, his father would be 42 by the time he’s ready to make the leap to the <strong><a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nba">NBA</a></strong>. That suggests he’s aiming for the pros in two years: James would turn 42 midway through the 2026-27 campaign, meaning two full seasons still lie ahead.</p>



<p>Still, given LeBron’s remarkable longevity and his drive to continue breaking records, it might be premature to rule out the possibility entirely. History has seen many players stay active in the league well into their 40s.</p>



<p>Currently, <strong>James ranks 19th among the oldest players to ever appear in an NBA game</strong>, at 40 years and 192 days. If all goes according to plan, he’s expected to climb that list during the upcoming year, passing legends like <strong>Manu Ginobili, Dirk Nowitzki, Karl Malone, </strong>and <strong>John Stockton.</strong></p>



<p>To play alongside Bryce, LeBron would need to reach beyond 42 years of age, placing him among the eight oldest players in NBA history. That list is topped by <strong>Nat Hickey</strong>, who retired just days shy of turning 46. <strong>Kevin Willis, Robert Parish, Vince Carter, Udonis Haslem, Dikembe Mutombo, </strong>and <strong>Kareem Abdul-Jabbar</strong> are the other players who remained active past 42.</p>

<p><strong><a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/lebron-james" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">LeBron James</a></strong> will play for the <strong>Los Angeles Lakers</strong> for at least another season. Rich Paul, CEO of Klutch Sports, told it to ESPN. LeBron’s player option has a value of $52.6 million. However, more than just money, this makes us question if James is playing all the way to share the court with another one of his sons, <strong>Bryce James</strong>.</p>



<p><strong><a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/bryce-james" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Bryce James</a> will be eligible to get drafted in 2026</strong>. As for now, he has committed to play for the University of Arizona next season. This means that if LeBron James wants to play with him, <strong>he will have to play for at least two more years.</strong></p>



<p>Now, will that be on the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/los-angeles-lakers" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Lakers</a>? That remains to be seen. However, if James wants to hit free agency, <strong>Bryce’s stock will rise as LeBron would likely go wherever his son is drafted.</strong></p>



<h2>Is Bryce better than Bronny?</h2>



<p><strong>Bryce is now a 3-star recruit according to 247Sports</strong>. Bronny was ranked as a 5-star recruit back in the day, so at first glance, <strong><a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/bronny-james" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Bronny</a> was a better prospect. </strong>Having said that, Bronny’s health issues at USC might have hampered his career.</p>

<p><strong>Bryce James is four inches taller than Bronny</strong>, standing at 6’6″. His high school stats are nothing to brag about, as <strong>he posted 6.9 points, 2.2 rebounds and 36.8% from three-point range.</strong> He has athleticism on his side, but his game is very raw and needs time to develop.</p>

<h2>Where will Bryce James play?</h2>



<p>If drafted, <strong>two places are the clear-cut favorites to get Bryce and therefore LeBron</strong>. Obviously, the Lakers come as the first option. That would likely mean <strong>all three James will play together as Bryce would join LeBron and Bronny.</strong></p>



<p>Another likely destination would be <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/cleveland-cavaliers" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Cleveland</a>. This would mean that LeBron would end his career where it all started, <strong>leaving his son to inherit what once was his kingdom.</strong></p>

<p>LeBron James’ second son, Bryce Maximus James, is set to start his college journey with the Arizona Wildcats. After spending his high school career between Sierra Canyon High School and Notre Dame High School in Sherman Oaks, while flirting with the idea of transferring to Campbell Hall in North Hollywood, the combo guard is starting his collegiate career away from home, contrary to what his older brother <strong>Bronny James </strong>did when he attended the University of Southern California.</p>



<p>As he prepares for his freshman year, James is making a solid impression during his first training sessions with the Wildcats. Along with fellow new signings <strong>Brayden Burries, Mabilmawut Kon and Motiejus Krivas</strong>, James was seen taking on drills with the rest of his teammates.</p>



<p>On Thursday, the Wildcats men’s team Instagram account shared a series of pictures that showed <strong>Bryce James</strong> and others sweating it out in the gym, as they prepare for the 2025-26 NCAA season.</p>

<h2>Can Bryce James be eligible for the NBA draft after freshman year?&nbsp;</h2>



<p>The simple answer would be yes, as the NBA requires potential draftees to be at least 19 years old during the calendar year of the draft. Bryce James turned 18 on June 14, meaning he’ll be just fine if he decides to join the association next year. However, another major factor in<strong> this scenario involves NBA teams.&nbsp;</strong></p>

<p>Bryce doesn’t carry the same expectations as his brother, which could help him have a<strong>n easier adjustment period</strong> with the Wildcats.</p>

LeBron James’ son Bryce turns heads in Arizona ahead of freshman season

LeBron James' son Bryce turns heads in Arizona ahead of freshman season - Bolavip US

<p>Back in early January, <strong>Bryce James</strong>, the youngest son of <strong>NBA</strong> legend <strong><a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/lebron-james">LeBron James</a></strong>, officially committed to play college basketball for the <strong>Arizona Wildcats</strong>. He also received offers from Ohio State and Duquesne, but ultimately chose to join Tommy Lloyd’s program in Tucson. This week, the Wildcats made it official with a social media announcement welcoming Bryce to the team. The question now becomes: Could he one day share the court with his father and brother, <strong>Bronny James</strong>?</p>



<p>As part of the official announcement, Arizona didn’t just unveil Bryce’s commitment with custom graphics—they also released a video message from the 17-year-old. In it, Bryce appears wearing a Wildcats jersey and delivers a short but confident message to his new fan base: <em><strong>“What’s going on Wildcat Nation? Can’t wait to get there and start working. Bear Down!”</strong></em></p>



<p>Bryce, who is three years younger than his brother Bronny, has a long road ahead. Bronny has already made headlines by debuting in the NBA alongside their father in what was a groundbreaking father-son moment in professional basketball. <strong>Could lightning strike twice? Thanks to LeBron’s remarkable longevity</strong>, that dream might not be as far-fetched as it seems.</p>



<p>If it happens, it would be unprecedented. <strong>A father playing not just with one, but two of his sons in a professional sports game has never happened in modern sports history.</strong> To make that scenario a reality, LeBron would need to remain active for at least three more seasons, while <strong><a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/bronny-james">Bronny</a> must continue to develop into a consistent NBA contributor</strong>. At the same time, Bryce would need to accelerate his growth and arrive in the league quickly and successfully.</p>



<div class="ck-twitter"><blockquote class="twitter-tweet"><p lang="en" dir="ltr">Bryce has officially signed 🐻⬇️ <a href="https://t.co/3uJy8cAOXF">pic.twitter.com/3uJy8cAOXF</a></p>— Arizona Basketball (@ArizonaMBB) <a href="https://twitter.com/ArizonaMBB/status/1912970646436589660?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">April 17, 2025</a></blockquote></div> 



<h2>When could Bryce realistically reach the NBA? A timeline breakdown</h2>



<p>Bryce James, now 17, is set to make his college debut in the 2025–26 NCAA season. <strong>Under current NBA eligibility rules, players must be one year removed from high school graduation before entering the draft</strong>. That means the 2026 NBA Draft would be Bryce’s first opportunity to turn pro.</p>


        <div class="wp_fsn_relatedlinks" id="BUS#/nba/lebron-james-names-two-former-nba-stars-who-revolutionized-game-and-dont-get-enough-credit-for-it"></div>

        

        


<p>If all goes according to plan, Bryce <strong>could make his NBA debut in the 2026–27 season, at age 19</strong>. That would also mark LeBron James’ 24th <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nba">NBA</a> season, when he’d be 42 years old.</p>



<p>Even for LeBron—widely recognized as one of the most durable athletes in NBA history—that timeline presents serious challenges. <strong>Age, health, and motivation will all play critical roles.</strong> But if anyone can defy those odds, it’s him.</p>



<h2>How rare is a multigenerational NBA legacy? Let history be the judge</h2>



<p>A LeBron-Bronny-<a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/bryce-james">Bryce</a> trio on the NBA floor would mark uncharted territory for any major sport. In baseball, <strong>Ken Griffey Sr. and Ken Griffey Jr. made history in 1990 when they played together for the Seattle Mariners</strong>—but that was just father and son. In football, iconic dynasties like the Mannings, Matthews, and Longs have spanned generations, yet never simultaneously. And <strong>in the NBA, the Curry family—with Dell, Stephen, and Seth</strong>—offers another notable case, though they never shared a roster.</p>



<p>What the James family is potentially building transcends those examples. <strong>This wouldn’t just be a legacy</strong>—it would be a <strong>living sports epic, magnified by the stature of LeBron</strong> as one of the greatest to ever play the game.</p>

<p><strong>LeBron James</strong>, the <strong><a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/los-angeles-lakers">Los Angeles Lakers</a></strong> superstar, has long expressed his dream of playing alongside his son, <strong>Bronny James</strong>, in the <strong>NBA</strong>. However, according to his former teammate <strong>Dwight Howard</strong>, LeBron’s ambitions go even further: he hopes to share the court with both of his sons, Bronny and <strong>Bryce James</strong>, creating an unprecedented family legacy in the league.</p>



<p>During a recent appearance on the&nbsp;<em>Podcast P with Paul George</em>, Howard revealed details of a conversation he had with LeBron about his future plans. According to Howard, <strong>LeBron not only wants to play with Bronny but also aims to bring Bryce into the Lakers’ fold</strong>, turning the team into a family affair.</p>



<p><em><strong>“I asked LeBron. He said he wanted Bronny, and he said he’s trying to get Bryce,” </strong></em>Howard shared. <em>“The last time I talked to LeBron, he said, ‘Listen, I’m trying to get Bronny and Bryce to be on the Lakers, and I’m trying to get Savannah to be—he’s going to be the owner of the team, so it’s a family affair. The whole James family.’”</em></p>



<p>While the mention of <strong>Savannah James</strong>, LeBron’s wife, was likely a joke, <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/dwight-howard">Dwight Howard</a> emphasized his admiration for <strong>LeBron’s vision</strong> and their time together as teammates, particularly during the Lakers’ 2020 NBA championship run.</p>

<p><em><strong>“I really enjoyed my time with the Lakers.

<h2>Bryce James: A long-term project for LeBron?</h2>



<p><a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/bryce-james">Bryce James</a>, <strong>LeBron’s younger son</strong>, is currently a three-star recruit according to&nbsp;<em>247Sports</em>. Unlike his brother Bronny, who may follow the “one-and-done” path to the NBA, Bryce could take a different route. If he decides to enter the NBA draft after his freshman year, there’s a risk he may not be selected, potentially opening the door for the Lakers to sign him as a free agent.</p>



<p>This raises an intriguing question: <strong>Will LeBron wait for Bryce’s NBA debut before playing alongside <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/bronny-james">Bronny</a>? </strong>If so, LeBron would need to extend his career for at least two more years, a remarkable feat for a player already in his 21st season.</p>



<h2>A James family dynasty in the making?</h2>



<p>The idea of a James family dynasty with the Lakers has captivated NBA fans and analysts alike. <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/lebron-james">LeBron</a>, who has hinted at eventually owning an NBA team, could see his dream come full circle by playing alongside his sons and potentially transitioning into a leadership role with the franchise.</p>



<p>This <strong>unprecedented scenario </strong>would not only solidify LeBron’s legacy as one of the greatest players in <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nba">NBA</a> history but also create a unique family narrative in professional sports.</p>

<p>Following in LeBron James’ footsteps, his youngest son, <strong><a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/bryce-james">Bryce James</a></strong>, made an official commitment to the Arizona Wildcats. He took to Instagram to announce the news, with his brother, <strong>Bronny James</strong>, offering a supportive reaction on the same platform.</p>



<p>While Bryce’s announcement sparked some reactions, what stood out was <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/bronny-james">Bronny</a>’s decision to simply repost <strong>his younger brother’s message without adding any personal comments on his brother’s upcoming move to the Wildcats in 2025.</strong></p>



<p>Many fans interpreted Bronny’s move as selfless, especially considering <strong>LeBron’s aspirations of becoming one of the few athletes to play alongside both of his sons on the same court. </strong>Bryce’s talent has already drawn attention, <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nba/nba-news-lebron-james-son-bryce-dominates-1v1-contest-follows-in-bronnys-footsteps">with Bryce impressing in a three-point contest</a>, further fueling buzz around his future.</p>



<p>Meanwhile, Bronny continues to develop his game, making strides in the G League but seeing limited minutes in the NBA. However, <strong>this season could provide a significant opportunity for him to embrace a role similar to JJ Redick’s, </strong>potentially showcasing his skills and carving out a more prominent spot in the league.</p>

<h2>LeBron’s potential reunion with Bryce in the NBA</h2>



<p>LeBron James is planning to play for at least two more seasons, with the possibility of extending his career by a third, according to <em>ESPN’s Shams Charania. </em>And that could be enough time to see if he is able to play with Bryce in the same team.</p>


        <div class="wp_fsn_relatedlinks" id="BUS#/nba/former-nba-champion-claims-bronny-and-bryce-james-would-easily-defeat-caitlin-clark"></div>


<p>Charania also noted that the 2024-25 season could coincide with a potential retirement for James, aligning with the NBA All-Star Game in Los Angeles.<strong> That season would mark Year 23 for the future Hall of Famer</strong>, making it a fitting milestone for his potential exit from the league.</p>



<h2>Could LeBron achieve that?</h2>



<p>At just 17 years old, Bryce James is already making waves in the NCAA as he gears up for a potential NBA career. <strong>However, due to the league’s age eligibility rules, he won’t be eligible for the NBA Draft for a few more years.</strong></p>



<p>If LeBron James decides to extend his career into 2026, it could pave the way for him to share the court with both of his sons. By that time, Bryce will be 19, while <strong>LeBron will be 42—a rare and potentially historic moment in basketball history. </strong>Until then, all eyes will be on LeBron and Bronny as they look to make an impact on the Lakers’ success this season.</p>

Bronny James' selfless reaction to Bryce James' commitment announcement

<p>Awarded <em>Athlete of the Year by Time Magazine</em>, <strong>Caitlin Clark</strong> was undoubtedly one of the standout players in the WNBA during the 2024 season. Playing for the Indiana Fever, she earned five individual awards this year and solidified her reputation as one of the brightest prospects in women’s basketball. On the other hand, <strong><a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/bronny-james">Bronny James</a></strong>, son of LeBron James, is carving his path in professional basketball. Though primarily competing in the G League, Bronny has started to showcase his considerable talent. Meanwhile, his younger brother, <strong>Bryce James</strong>, is also pursuing an <strong>NBA</strong> career, though his age currently limits his opportunities.</p>



<p>As sons of an NBA legend, Bronny and <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/bryce-james">Bryce</a> have naturally become the center of heated discussions on various sports shows. <strong>Bronny, in particular, has faced a mix of praise and criticism for his performances.</strong> His time with the Los Angeles Lakers has fallen short of expectations, but his recent progress in the G League hints at untapped potential.</p>



<p>Adding fuel to the ongoing debate, <strong>former NBA champion Jeff Teague recently speculated about a hypothetical one-on-one contest between Bronny James and <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/caitlin-clark">Caitlin Clark</a>.</strong> Teague’s opinion stirred controversy as it touched on the differences in physical performance between men and women in basketball.</p>



<p><em>“Caitlin would not score a point on Bronny, bro,”</em> Teague said. <em><strong>“She might not even get a shot off, bro. … He would beat her by 60 [points]. He would legit beat her 20-0.”</strong></em> Teague went on to claim that Bryce James, despite being younger, would also dominate Clark with a similar scoreline.</p>

<p>Teague justified his bold statement by pointing to the athletic disparities between the two. <em><strong>“He’s 10 times more athletic than her. He can do everything better than her. She’s a girl, bro,”</strong></em> Teague commented, sparking a broader conversation about the physical and competitive differences between men and women in professional basketball.</p>

<h2>Clark’s performance compared to Bronny’s in their first season</h2>



<p>When evaluating their performances to hypothesize the outcome of a one-on-one contest, the differences between Clark and Bronny become evident. <strong>Physically, Bronny has an edge: standing at 6’2″ and weighing 210 pounds, he surpasses Clark, who is 6’0″ and weighs 152 pounds.</strong></p>



<p>However, the stats tell a different story. In her first seven games, Clark has averaged an impressive 15 points per game, including 4.7 field goals and 2.5 three-pointers per game. <strong>In contrast, Bronny has managed just four points across seven <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nba">NBA</a> appearances.</strong> Despite this, his G League performances are more promising, with averages of 5.3 field goals and one three-pointer per game.</p>



<p>While physical attributes are undoubtedly significant, the WNBA’s later season start compared to the NBA,<strong> coupled with differences in league dynamics, highlight the need to consider context. </strong>As JJ Redick has noted, Bronny’s decision-making and basketball IQ are areas he must improve to reach his full potential.</p>



<h2>Bronny’s next NBA match</h2>



<p>After being called up for Monday’s game against the Pistons—though he didn’t see court time—Bronny could make the roster for the highly anticipated Christmas matchup against the Golden State Warriors. <strong>Fans are eager to see whether his strong G League performances will influence Redick’s decision</strong> to grant him a few minutes on the NBA floor.</p>

<p>The James family legacy in the <strong>NBA</strong> appears to be in good hands. Fans of <strong>LeBron James</strong> are buzzing on social media after watching his son, <strong><a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/bryce-james">Bryce James</a></strong>, dominated a recent 1v1 contest. Many are already predicting that Bryce, like his older brother <strong>Bronny James</strong>, could one day follow in LeBron’s footsteps and make his mark in the NBA.</p>



<p>While <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/lebron-james">LeBron</a> led the Lakers to a win over the San Antonio Spurs during the NBA regular season,<strong> Bryce was live-streaming with one of today’s most popular influencers, Kai Cenat.</strong> Joined by Hollywood star Chris Hart, the three were engaging in some lighthearted fun when Bryce was challenged to show off his basketball skills. </p>



<p>The footage quickly went viral, <strong>showcasing Bryce’s impressive talent and fueling speculation that the young star could soon be making a name for himself </strong>on a much bigger stage.</p>



<p>After the contest, Bryce was seen smiling, while everyone in Cenat’s house enjoyed his performance. <strong>With talent that some attribute to LeBron’s genes, Bryce seems poised for a future in the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nba">NBA</a></strong>, and fans can’t wait to see what’s next.</p>

<h2>Colleges showing interest in Bryce James</h2>



<p>According to 24/7 Sports, <strong>several top-tier colleges are already keeping a close eye on Bryce James, LeBron’s youngest son</strong>. With Bronny making his mark in the NBA and spending time in the G League, attention around Bryce has intensified. While Bryce is still in high school and a few years away from the NBA<strong>, there’s growing speculation that he could one day join his older brother Bronny in the league</strong>, possibly even sharing the floor with LeBron himself.</p>



<p>At this early stage, schools like <strong>USC, Ohio State, and Duquesne have already made their intentions clear, expressing strong interest in Bryce</strong>. The recruitment battle is expected to heat up over the coming months. </p>



<p>While Bryce remains focused on his high school career for now, his future looks promising.<strong> If all goes according to plan, he could become the next player in the James family to continue their legacy in the NBA alongside Bronny.</strong></p>

<p>Ahead of the <strong>NBA</strong> regular season opener, the Los Angeles Lakers are placing their trust in the level of <strong><a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/lebron-james">LeBron James</a></strong>, as well as his son, <strong>Bronny James</strong>. Before the highly anticipated matchup against the Minnesota Timberwolves, speculation is swirling about how long LeBron intends to play—and whether he could eventually share the court with his younger son, <strong>Bryce James</strong>.</p>



<p>Entering his 22nd <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nba">NBA</a> season, <strong>LeBron has already etched his name in the history books</strong>. If Bronny takes the floor tonight, LeBron will become one of the few players to share the court with his own son in the NBA.</p>



<p>According to ESPN’s Shams Charania, LeBron has outlined plans for his future in the league, <strong>which could extend beyond two more seasons</strong>: <em>“LeBron James is planning to play for at least two more years, and potentially three.”</em></p>



<p>Charania added, <em>“Next season would align well with a possible retirement, coinciding with the All-Star Game and weekend in Los Angeles. <strong>That would mark year 23, creating some fitting parallels for his exit.</strong>“</em></p>

<h2>LeBron’s last season according to Charania</h2>



<p>Despite turning 40 in December,<strong> LeBron continues to perform at a high level, especially during the preseason</strong>. While he didn’t play in all the games, he remains a crucial player for the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/los-angeles-lakers">Lakers</a>, and the fans have faith that he could continue for several more seasons.</p>


        <div class="wp_fsn_relatedlinks" id="BUS#/nba/nba-news-lebron-james-and-bronny-to-miss-three-teammates-in-season-opener-against-the-timberwolves"></div>


<p>According to Charania: <em>“I don’t think there’s any restriction for LeBron James. You always have to be mindful of his age—he’s turning 40 in December—<strong>but we saw him at the Olympics, and he looked great.</strong>“</em></p>



<h2>Could LeBron play alongside his sons?</h2>



<p>One of the most exciting possibilities for NBA fans is the chance of seeing LeBron James play alongside his sons. <strong>With Bronny already on the Lakers roster, the next in line would be LeBron’s younger son</strong>, <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/bryce-james">Bryce James</a>.</p>



<p>At 17 years old, Bryce is currently playing in the NCAA, preparing for a potential NBA career. However, due to the league’s age restrictions, <strong>he will have to wait a few years before becoming draft-eligible</strong>.</p>



<p>If LeBron decides to extend his career until 2026, it could open the door for him to play with both of his sons. By then, <strong>Bryce would be 19, and LeBron would be 42—a rare and historic opportunity</strong>. Until then, fans will be watching closely to see how LeBron and <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/bronny-james">Bronny</a> impact the Lakers’ success this season.</p>

<p>As <strong><a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/lebron-james">LeBron James</a> </strong>approaches another milestone—playing his first game for the <strong>Los Angeles Lakers </strong>alongside his son <strong>Bronny James</strong>—the excitement around the James family continues to grow. Bronny, who was drafted by the Lakers in the second round with the 55th overall pick, will make history by becoming <strong>the first father-son duo to play together in the NBA</strong>. </p>



<p>However, it’s LeBron’s second son, Bryce, who is sparking debate by naming his top five NBA players of all time, notably excluding <strong><a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/stephen-curry">Stephen Curry</a></strong>. While Bronny has been making headlines for his own basketball prowess, Bryce has also been catching the attention of basketball fans, not just for his emerging talent but for his controversial opinions. </p>



<p>In a recent clip released by <em>Uninterrupted</em>, Bryce shared his top five NBA players of all time, which included <strong>LeBron James, Michael Jordan, Kobe Bryant, Russell Westbrook, and Carmelo Anthony</strong>—omitting Stephen Curry.</p>



<p>Both Bronny and Bryce agree that their father is the greatest basketball player of all time, but Bryce’s inclusion of Russell Westbrook, who has faced heavy criticism for his declining performance in recent seasons, raised eyebrows.</p>

<h2>Who are the greatest in NBA history according to Bronny?</h2>



<p>In an interview with <em>ESPN</em>, <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/bronny-james">Bronny James</a> was also asked to rank his top five NBA players of all time, and his picks were just as controversial. Notably absent from Bronny’s list were legends like <strong>Michael Jordan</strong>, <strong>Magic Johnson</strong>, <strong>Kareem Abdul</strong>–<strong>Jabbar</strong>, and even <strong>Kobe Bryant</strong>. Bronny’s ranking: <em><strong>“LeBron (James) is 1. Steph (Curry) 2. Kyrie (Irving) 3. KD (Kevin Durant) in 4. Ant (Anthony Edwards) and Shai (Gilgeous-Alexander) tied at 5.”</strong></em></p>

<h2>Curry’s top 5 NBA players of all time</h2>



<p>Back in June, Stephen Curry shared his own top five players of his era on his father’s podcast, <em>Heat Check</em>. <em><strong>“I’m gonna go basically from 2009-23. Bron, KD, Kawhi. Every time you do this, you’re gonna miss somebody… Obviously myself… There’s like a group of like four that I’m picking from right now and it’s really, really, really, really, really hard… I’m gonna say James,”</strong></em> Curry said. His final list, in no particular order: LeBron James, Stephen Curry, Kevin Durant, James Harden, and Kawhi Leonard.</p>

NBA News: LeBron James’ son Bryce leaves Stephen Curry out of top 5 NBA players of all time - Bolavip US

<p>The <strong>2024 NBA</strong> <strong>Draft</strong> marked a historic milestone for the <strong>Los Angeles Lakers by selecting <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/bronny-james">Bronny James</a>, LeBron James’ eldest son, with the 55th pick</strong>. While the decision generated skepticism in some quarters, the reality is that Bronny, at just 19 years old, has time to develop and prove himself.</p>



<p><strong>The initial plan for Bronny is for him to continue his development with the South Bay <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/angeles-lakers">Lakers</a> during his rookie season</strong>, accumulating experience and pace of play that he didn’t have in his only college season.</p>



<p>Right now, the focus isn’t just on Bronny, as his younger brother, <strong><a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/bryce-james">Bryce James</a></strong>, is also turning heads as a promising prospect at the high school level, and<strong> the question mark has been raised about the possibility of playing together.</strong></p>



<h2>The possibility of a LeBron-Bronny and the unknown of Bryce</h2>



<p>While the idea of seeing <strong>LeBron</strong> and <strong>Bronny </strong>share the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/nba"><strong>NBA</strong></a> court is exciting, the possibility of Bryce joining them in the future seems more remote. Even though <strong><a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/lebron-james">LeBron James</a> has proven his longevity by playing 71 games last season at age 39</strong>, with the expectation of playing at least two more seasons, time is ticking and his career is nearing the end.</p>

<p>With LeBron James entering his 20th season and about to turn 40, it’s unlikely that his career will extend much beyond the two seasons that are expected. <strong>This is why the Lakers are looking for young talent to usher in a new era for the franchise.</strong></p>
