LA Lakers superstar forward LeBron James' son, Bryce James, and his high school squad, the Sierra Canyon Trailblazers, dominated the Chaminade Eagles 87-54 on Tuesday. A day later, LeBron's wife, Savannah James, reacted to their son's standout showing on Instagram.
Amid his off day, LeBron attended Bryce's home matchup against Chaminade, generating buzz on social media. The high school senior delivered several highlight plays in front of his father, including throwing down a right-handed fastbreak dunk after picking off a pass.
Bryce also banked in an and-one finish off the dribble and a fastbreak layup after securing another steal.

According to High School on SI's Tarek Fattal, Bryce finished with eight points and four rebounds. Meanwhile, with its lopsided 33-point victory, Sierra Canyon improved to 14-3.
On Wednesday, Savannah shared Bleacher Report Hoops' clip of Bryce's throwdown to her Instagram stories, captioned, "Turn me up, Bryce." The supportive mother added a pair of rabbit face emojis in her caption, although the meaning is unclear.
Bryce, who committed to the University of Arizona on Jan. 1, is a four-star recruit in ESPN's Class of 2025. The 6-foot-4 wing is ranked 40th among small forwards and 19th in the state of California in his class.
Savannah James on son Bryce James' decision to commit to Arizona
Upon Bryce James' announcement of his commitment to Arizona, his mother expressed her support on Instagram. Savannah James shared a photoshopped image of Bryce donning Wildcats attire, commending his work ethic in her caption.
"So proud of you, Bryce!! Your silent hustle has definitely not gone unnoticed!! I'm so excited for you, and I can't wait to cheer you on through this journey!" Savannah wrote.
While LeBron James never attended college, Bryce's older brother, Bronny James, spent one season at the University of Southern California last season. After forgoing his sophomore season, he was drafted No. 55 by LeBron's Lakers in the 2024 NBA draft.
So, if Bryce continues developing, he could follow in his brother's footsteps by parlaying his freshman season at Arizona into an NBA opportunity.
