Bronny James drops one-word reaction to brother Bryce James bombshell Arizona announcement

LeBron James' son, Bryce James, has kicked off the new year by announcing that he has committed to playing NCAA basketball at Arizona. On Wednesday morning, Bryce James announced his decision to commit to Arizona with an Instagram post showing himself in an Arizona jersey.

Considering Bronny had played at USC, and the James family lives in California now, some fans thought that Bryce would either follow in his brother's footsteps or go to a California-based school

Bryce left the post without a caption. However, his brother, Bronny James, was quick to respond less than 15 minutes later, simply writing: "Yessirrrrrrr," as seen below.

The news of Bryce James committing to Arizona comes on the heels of his mom, Savannah James, saying on an episode of her "Everybody's Crazy" podcast that the two were going on college visits.

While at the time Savannah played her cards close to the vest and didn't divulge what schools the two were visiting, fans began to speculate that Bryce James would make his college decision soon.

Bryce James' unofficial college visit to Arizona turned heads back in November, now the second-generation hooper is set to join play for the school

Late last year there was tons of talk surrounding where Bryce James would play collegiate basketball. With the second-generation hooper impressing fans, analysts, and scouts alike with his play at the AAU level, specifically at the EYBL Peach Jam, there was plenty of buzz around his college decision.

Then, in November, reports began to pop up that James was making unofficial college visits. Mid way through the month of November, James had reportedly made unofficial visits to both Ohio State and USC, where Bronny James played.

Then, a report from On3 Sports popped up saying that Bryce had visited Arizona, which caught the attention of fans.

Bryce's visit to Ohio made sense given that the James family is from Ohio. Similarly, his visit to USC didn't surprise fans considering that Bronny James spent a year with the school before declaring for the NBA draft and the family now lives in LA.

Bryce's decision to take a visit to Arizona, however, was an outlier given the family doesn't have any ties to the school or the Phoenix area. Given that, fans have theorized that the news of his commitment could indicate LeBron James may make his way to the Suns via the trade market.

While there have been no credible reports suggesting LeBron will be traded to Phoenix, if Bryce follows in his brother's footsteps and winds up making the jump to the NBA after just one year in college, there's a chance the father-son duo team up in LA before The King rides off into the sunset.
