LeBron James' eldest son, Bronny James, participated in the 2023 Powerade JamFest contest. Bronny came in second after not completing his last dunk in the final round. However, his dunk over younger brother Bryce left fans in awe and went viral.
On his first dunk of the final round, Bronny jumped over the taller Bryce to get a nice ovation from the crowd. But how tall is LeBron's second son? Bryce is currently listed at 6-foot-6 by NBADraftRoom.com. He's only 15 years old and could potentially grow even taller before the 2026 NBA draft.
Meanwhile, Bronny is just 6-2 at 18 years old. He seems to have the same athletic ability as his father following his impressive showing at Monday's event. He's an expected lottery pick in next year's NBA draft despite not committing to any program at the moment.

Bronny James wowed the crowd at the 2023 Powerade JamFest. His first dunk was a reverse double-handed windmill dunk off the bounce. He followed it up with another windmill dunk off the bounce, but this time it was a side windmill.
The 18-year-old guard then jumped over his brother Bryce James for his first dunk of the final round. He needed 58 points to win the contest and tried to do a between-the-legs dunk off the bounce. However, he ran out of time to complete it.
Duke-commit Sean Stewart ended up winning the dunk contest. While Bronny didn't win the dunk contest, LeBron James won the 2003 McDonald's All-American dunk contest, beating J.R. Giddens in the final.
