There’s a new James on the block! Los Angeles Lakers superstar LeBron James is already sharing the court with his oldest son, Bronny James, in Southern California. However, Bryce James is making sure that James’ legacy is carried even further. The 18-year-old shooting guard is following in the footsteps of his dad and brother. Bryce committed to the University of Arizona earlier this year in a move that sent shockwaves throughout the basketball world. But he’s not done yet.
Bryce has already made his parents, LeBron and Savannah James, proud. However, on Thursday, he took things up a notch as the newest wildcat featured in the team’s official post to get to know the program’s freshmen. The clip features Bryce James answering some quick questions, such as “What’s your favorite dish?” Or “What’s your favorite book?” However, things took an interesting turn once Bryce was asked about his favorite pro team. Can you guess what was Bryce’s answer? You guessed it. “Los Angeles Lakers,” Bryce said.
This question was followed up with another great question, “Who is your favorite player?” Any guesses for this one? We mean, it’s hard to name anyone else when your father is King James himself, and that is exactly whom Bryce named his favorite player. However, the clip did not end here! There was more to come as the reporter asked the 18-year-old, “Who is the GOAT?” To which Bryce obviously named his dad, making his feelings about the Lakers and his father pretty clear.

Sure enough, answers like these would make any parent proud, and Savannah couldn’t control her emotions. The mother of three, podcast host, and businesswoman, made sure that all of her fans saw how high regard Bryce holds his father in. LeBron’s better half was left speechless as she posted the clip on her story. This was a way of showing her appreciation of how far her youngest son has come in his life. While the James family shared this love, the LA superstar made a huge confession about his retirement.

LeBron James makes a huge confession about his retirement
Do you remember how hyped up the entire basketball world was when Bronny and LeBron James shared the court as teammates for the first time? Seems just like yesterday. However, an entire season has reached its twilight, and now, at 40 years old, everyone wants to know how much longer the King can go. The Los Angeles Lakers veteran went out nursing a knee injury this season from the playoffs. While the four-time NBA champion has nothing left to prove, there’s one thing that helps him keep going. Do you know what?

Yes, it’s his family, LeBron James’ wife, Savannah, and his three kids, Bronny, Bryce, and Zhuri, are the reason that the future Hall-of-Famer is carrying on. “They’re like, “Dad, continue on your dream. This is your dream. Continue on your focus. You’ve been here for us this whole time,” James told The Associated Press. “When you have that type of support… it makes it a lot easier.” Of course, his eldest son, Bronny, is now his teammate in Los Angeles, a dream that the 40-year-old wanted to accomplish before calling it quits. But with Bryce now steaming his way through the basketball world, one can only wonder if LeBron wants to share the court with his other son.

What’s your perspective on:
Is Bryce James destined to surpass his father LeBron's legacy in the basketball world?
Have an interesting take?
However, for now, at least James considers playing at least until the 2026-27 season “insane“. Well, we cannot blame him, given he’ll be 42 by then. James did attest to the fact that he doesn’t have a timetable or date for his final day in the league, he told the press that the decision will be made according to his family and body.
However, going by his words, it seems that his days in the NBA are limited, which means we should enjoy them to the fullest. As far as sharing the court with Bryce James goes? We can only wait and watch.
