What a memorable week it has been for the James Gang! All credit to the family’s youngest man, Bryce. Only a few days ago, he attended his senior prom, and LeBron James, like a proud father, helped him get dressed up for the occasion. Draped in a classy Louis Vuitton suit with a Cartier watch on his wrist, Bryce took the hoop community by storm. And King James could not stop bragging about his son’s major milestone.

“PROM 2025 for the LEGEND BRYCE MAXIMUS @_justbryce. What a handsome Young 🤴🏾!! Always proud of you! Keep going UP kid! 🤎🫡💪🏾👑” Lakers small forward wrote on Instagram. Sure enough, the celebration did not end there. On Thursday, the 40-year-old was filled with pride once again, as he attended Bryce’s graduation from Sierra Canyon High School in California. And when the teenager walked on stage to receive his diploma, LeBron couldn’t help but let out a loud screech.

Obviously, the unusual sound caught everyone’s attention, and they burst out laughing, while Bryce could do nothing but smile and shake his head in disbelief. Isn’t that what every great father does? Embarrass his kid in a public setting. Well, LeBron remained unbothered and doubled down by sharing the wholesome clip on his IG story, with a two-word response, “PROUD DAD!!!” along with several laughing emojis.
