"LeBron to the Suns confirmed": Bryce James' Arizona decision has fans predicting his Lakers star's future

After Bryce James, the youngest son of four-time NBA champion LeBron James, committed to the Arizona Wildcats on Wednesday, fans speculated about the future of the LA Lakers star.

Bryce's announcement on Instagram spread quickly. And amid many congratulatory messages, several fans posted predictions for his dad. They predicted that since Bryce is in Arizona, LeBron's next team would be the Phoenix Suns, which is based in Arizona's capital.

"LeBron to the Suns confirmed," a fan wrote.

Bronny James, LeBron's eldest and the Lakers rookie, also caught strays from fans.

"D**n LeBron and Bronny to the Suns?" a fan posted.

"He's way better than bronny. Lebron is about to play with both of his sons that's fucking crazy," another fan wrote.

There were also fans on X that speculated the same.

"First there were lebron trade to suns or warriors rumors, then bronny worked out with the suns, now Bryce commits to U of A. Is lebron going to be a Sun?" one fan wrote.

"Lebron going to be traded to the Suns!" another fan declared.

"Lebron to the Suns confirmed," another fan wrote.

Lebron, a 20-time NBA All-Star, has been the subject of trade rumors this season. One of the teams being linked to him is the Suns. Bannered by All-Stars Kevin Durant, Devin Booker and Bradley Beal, Phoenix (15-17), which is 11th in the Western Conference, has fallen short of expectations again.

Another team linked to James is the Golden State Warriors (16-16), wherein there is a possibility of a team-up with fellow MVP and longtime rival Stephen Curry. The Warriors, like the Lakers, are pressured to make the most out of the remaining years of their aging superstars.

LeBron James' son, Bryce James, made a surprise announcement

On Wednesday, Bryce James made a surprise commitment to the Arizona Wildcats.

James reportedly had offers from the Ohio State Buckeyes, Duquesne Dukes and USC Trojans — albeit only a mild interest.

"100% committed," James wrote on Instagram.

According to 247Sports, James was recruited by Jack Murphy, the associate coach of Arizona. James is a three-star prospect who ranks 257th overall and 46th among shooting guards in the class of 2025.

Bryce's dad, LeBron, is 40 years old with a few years left in the league. It remains to be seen if LeBron will intend to play with his younger son.
