Bryce is a high school player at Sierra Canyon School in Los Angeles. The 16-year-old has elicited interest from various Division 1 schools.

His older brother Bronny, meanwhile, is currently participating in the NBA draft combine in preparation for the draft proper next month. The 19-year-old has been turning heads for certian facets of his game, which he hopes would translate to placing well in the draft selection.

He played one college season for the USC Trojans, where he avaraged 4.8 points, 2.8 rebounds and 2.1 assists on a 36.6% shooting clip from the floor in 19.4 minutes of play in 25 games.

Bronny James said his NBA superstar-dad is rooting for him as he embarks on his journey to playing in The Association.

The younger James is among the participants currently showcasing their wares at the NBA draft combine, looking to impress scouts and team exectuives in making their decision on who to select in the draft proper next month.

In one of the media sessions at the combine, Bronny shared that LeBron James is constantly keeping tabs on his progress while also giving pointers and words of encouragement.

He said:

"My dad has been talking to me after each day, just checking in. He's just given me words of wisdom and encouragement."

While he knows a lot of pressure rides on his shoulders as a son to widely considered one of the best, if not the best, NBA players in history, Bronny said he is up for the challenge and is out to make a name for himself.

He said by way of CBS Sports:

"My dream has always just been to put my name out, make a name for myself, and get to the NBA, which is everyone's end goal that's here."

He went on to add that while the idea of playing alongside his father is an exciting proposition, it is something that he is not actively pursuing:

"I never thought about just playing with my dad. But of course, he's brought it up a couple of times."
