The annual tip-off event at Sierra Canyon High School turned into a lively celebration as Bryce James, son of NBA star LeBron James, showcased his personality on center court. With students and faculty gathered to kick off the basketball season, the younger James captivated the crowd by joining in the festivities and dancing in the spotlight.
While the event featured games, food stalls, and prize giveaways, it was Bryce’s moment on the court that drew the most attention. Clips from the event circulated online, highlighting his carefree energy. One video shared by Ballislife captured Bryce mid-dance, sparking instant reactions from none other than his parents.
LeBron James and Savannah James, proud and supportive, quickly shared the footage on their Instagram stories. They echoed one another’s excitement in their captions, expressing their joy with near-identical messages that summed up the moment perfectly. LeBron’s post read, “Ayyyyyyyeeeeeee,” while Savannah chimed in with “Aaayyyyyeeee!!!”
Bryce’s return to Sierra Canyon marks an important chapter in his high school career. After starting at the prestigious school, playing alongside his older brother Bronny James, Bryce made stops at Campbell Hall School and Notre Dame High School before returning for his senior year. Now, he is poised to finish on familiar turf with aspirations that reach beyond high school basketball.
Bryce will have to make a decision about college soon
The senior Trailblazer has already attracted college attention, with scholarship offers from Duquesne and Ohio State. Rumors also swirl about interest from USC, a program his older brother briefly called home. Bronny James, following his time with the Trojans, entered the NBA draft and was picked 55th overall by the Los Angeles Lakers-marking a historic milestone when he took the court with LeBron as part of the first father-son duo in league play.
LeBron James, at 39, remains a dominant force in the NBA, and the possibility of sharing the court with not just one, but both of his sons has fueled speculation. For now, Bryce’s dance at Sierra Canyon is a joyful reminder that he is relishing the journey, and his family couldn’t be more thrilled to watch him shine.
