The future of basketball is banking on the next lot of talented NBA offspring, and Bryce James, the son of the legendary LeBron James, will undoubtedly get major attention during his senior season of high school. Bryce has already attracted significant attention from scouts.

Bryce's growth spurt, reaching around 6-foot-6 at the age of 15 a year ago, combined with his impressive shooting ability, solid defense and high basketball IQ, positions him as a candidate for the modern NBA, which emphasizes versatility.

Additionally, with the guidance of his father, LeBron James, as both a coach and mentor, Bryce is receiving exceptional preparation for a successful future.

Bryce James

Bryce James, NBA superstar LeBron James’ son, is poised to make a significant impact in his senior season at Sierra Canyon School. With an impressive NIL valuation of $1.3 million, Bryce holds the distinction of being the highest-ranked high school player in terms of NIL value, according to On3, showcasing his marketability and potential for a lucrative future in basketball.

Despite being ranked as a three-star prospect and the No. 27 shooting guard nationally, Bryce's fundamental skills, solid size and early skill set have garnered attention and offers from programs like Ohio State and Duquesne.

Kiyan Anthony

Kiyan Anthony, the son of former NBA player Carmelo Anthony and television personality La La Anthony, is a senior at Long Island Lutheran High School in New York. He transferred from Christ the King High School in Queens in 2023.

Anthony's skills have also shone through in his contributions to Team Melo, an AAU team sponsored by his father. Regarded as one of the top shooting guards in the Class of 2025 by ESPN and other recruiting services, Anthony's success has been further established through an NIL deal with PSD in 2023.

Furthermore, Kiyan Anthony, a four-star prospect ranked No. 36 overall by ESPN, has received offers from Syracuse, Indiana, Michigan, Florida State, Illinois and more.

Additionally, Cameron's international success with USA Basketball, including MVP awards at the FIBA Americas U16 Championship and FIBA U17 World Cup, cement his standing as a top-tier prospect.

On the other hand, Cayden Boozer, a 6-5 point guard, is ranked at No. 17 in the ESPN 100. As the first commitments in Duke's 2025 class, the twins join a prestigious list of five-star prospects who have chosen to don the Blue Devils' jersey under Jon Scheyer's leadership.
