Bronny & Bryce James Shine In Win Against Kiyan Anthony

Yesterday was a huge day for high school basketball as Bronny & Bryce James took on Kiyan Anthony. This is important as LeBron James and Carmelo Anthony were once high school rivals. Now, everything is coming full circle for these two, and it is a massive moment for the future of the sport.

Sierra Canyon took on Christ The King in California, and it brought out all of the stars. Scottie Pippen was in attendance, as well as Kim Kardashian. From there, LeBron and Melo were there to cheer on their boys, who were front and center throughout the entire game.

Bronny Dominates

Bronny was all over the court whether it be offensively, or defensively. Sierra Canyon ended up winning 62-51, and a lot of it was because of what James did on defense. He managed to score 12 points, and he kept Kiyan Anthony to just 10.

In the video clips below, you can see some highlights from the game. Overall, both Bronny and Kiyan are exceptionally talented. The game was being broadcast on ESPN, which allowed a broader audience to truly get a feel for this next generation of basketball talent. If you’re LeBron and Melo, you cannot help but feel extremely proud.

Subsequently, the James family and the Anthony family took some photos together after the game. It was a truly amazing moment that showcased how multiple generations of basketball are coming together. For those who watched LeBron and Melo duke it out in high school, this was definitely a night to remember.

Bronny has a very bright future as numerous colleges have made him offers. For now, however, he has yet to make a decision on where he wants to go. As for Bryce and Kiyan, they have offers of their own, although at 15 years old, it is too early to make that choice.

LeBron James Reacts To Carmelo’s Son Playing Against His Own

LeBron James has been in the NBA for 20 seasons now. Even now, he still has a lot to give the game. For instance, Dennis Schroeder recently made the claim that LeBron wants to play until the age of 45. This would be an incredible feat, however, who knows if Schroeder’s comments are accurate?

Having said that, LeBron is looking to play with his sons Bronny and Bryce. They are exceptional high school basketball players at Sierra Canyon, and they are continuing Bron’s legacy. As it turns out, they will be playing against Kiyan Anthony tonight. Of course, Kiyan is the son of Carmelo Anthony, who plays for Christ The King High School in New York.

LeBron James Reflects

When LeBron was in high school, he had some great battles against Melo. Melo was playing for Oak Hill while James was on St. Vincent-St. Mary’s. Subsequently, both players ended up in the NBA and were top three draft picks. Now, their sons will get to play against each other in what should be an amazing game.

LeBron is super stoked about all of this. In fact, the Lakers superstar took to his Instagram page where he spoke about the upcoming game. Overall, he isn’t making any predictions, however, he did make sure to reflect on his matchups with Melo and what this means for him as a parent.

“The Legacies Continue To Live On tonight!” James wrote. “Wow this is surreal and quite frankly insane!! 21 years later from when I played vs my brother @carmeloanthony (St-V/Oak Hill) and now this evening our boys are playing against one another! Life is Good/Beautiful.”

This game is going to be broadcast on ESPN 2 which is great news for everyone interested in seeing these schools play one another. The game goes down at 11 PM EST, and there is going to be a ton of fanfare.

Bryce James Signs With Klutch Sports

Bryce James is LeBron James’ youngest son and as it stands, he is playing basketball for Sierra Canyon. What is cool about Bryce is that he gets to play with his younger brother, Bronny. Together, Bryce and Bronny have made huge waves on the court. Additionally, they are both getting college offers.

At this point, Bryce is just 15 years old, however, he is already almost as tall as his dad. Not to mention, there are people out there who believe Bryce has the potential to be an NBA star. No matter how you swing it, the future is very bright for Bryce, and there are a ton of reasons to be excited about him.

Bryce James Signs New Deal

Interestingly enough, James is already signing Name, Image, and Likeness deals. Bronny has signed quite a few already. For instance, the oldest James brother was able to get himself a deal with Beats by Dre, and even Nike. Now, however, Bryce is getting his name out there with a Klutch Sports deal.

For those who may not know, Klutch Sports is the agency run by Rich Paul. Paul is LeBron’s agent, who is one of the most powerful people in all of basketball. This kind of deal was inevitable, however, it is certainly deserved. Bryce is someone who is getting a lot of looks right now, and he needs all the representation he can get.

Perhaps this is a bit too much pressure to put on a teenager. Although, it does appear like Bryce is ready to handle the task at hand. He has shown a ton of maturity thus far, and fans can’t wait to see what else is next for him.

Let us know what you think of this signing, in the comments below. Additionally, stay tuned to HNHH for more news from around the basketball world.
