Bryce James, the youngest son of Savannah and Los Angeles Lakers superstar LeBron James, has announced his commitment to a top NCAA basketball program.
On his Instagram account, Bryce James wrote that he’s “100 % committed” to the Arizona Wildcats’ team. Bryce, who turns 18 in June, is finishing his senior year at Sierra Canyon High School in Chatsworth, California.
Bryce’s older brother, Bronny James, also attended Sierra Canyon High before spending one season of college basketball at USC. Following his tenure with the Trojans, Bronny was drafted 55th overall by the Lakers and became teammates with his father.
Bronny and LeBron became the first father-son duo to play in the NBA at the same time. The younger James has split his 2024-25 rookie year with the Lakers and the South Bay Lakers of the G League.
