The youngest son of LeBron James, Bryce, was sighted on an unofficial visit to Ohio State University on Saturday as he mulls over his college basketball future following his graduation from high school in California in 2025.
The 16-year-old, a junior at Notre Dаme High School in Sherman Oaks, a posh Los Angeles suburb, watched Ohio State beаt Maryland, 37-17, in the first round of the NCAA tournament.
Highly touted point guard for the class of 2026, Dezhon Hall, was also in Columbus for an unofficial visit and posted multiple photos and videos of himself in the Buckeyes’ stadium on Instagram.
Photos of the two chatting with Ohio State me?’s basketball coach Chris Holtmann were also widely shared online while the Buckeyes were playing the Michigan Wolverines.
James, a six-foot-six small forward and four-star prоspect according to ESPN, said he felt “blessed” when he got an offer to play basketball for the Buckeyes on X. He enrolled at Campbell Hall School after spending the summer at Sierra Canyon School (in California), and then he transferred to Notre Dаme High School.
Last spring and summer, Bryce Maximus played on the Nike EYBL 16U circuit for the Strive For Greatness grassroots program, where he averaged 7.6 points per game in 15 contests.
His older brother, Bronny, had previously visited Ohio State with their dad, LeBron, following the Buckeyes’ September 2022 victory over Notre Dаme.
Bronny considered playing for Ohio State, but finally decided to sign with USC in the spring.
The eldest of the James brothers, at 19, had a heart collapse in July during a team practice.
However, LeBron stated earlier this week that his kid is doing ‘very well’ in his treatment and rehabilitation with the intention of playing for the Spartans this season.
LeBron, who will soon turn 38, is starting his 21st season in the NBA and is thus the league’s de facto senior citizen.
When it comes to the oldest NBA players, he is not alone. Some other NBA players are also 38, including P.J. Tucker of the Philadelphia 76ers and Chris Paul of the Phoenix Suns.
In 55 games with the Lakers last year, “The King” averaged 28.9 points, 8.3 rebounds, and 6.7 assists.
James led the Lakers to the Eastern Conference Finals in the playoffs, averaging 24.5 points, 9.9 rebounds, and 6.5 assists per game.
