LeBron James Stunned By Bronny’s Dunk Over Bryce

by

LeBron James is the greatest player of this generation. Overall, he has won four NBA titles, has the all-time NBA scoring record, and still has a lot left in the tank. In fact, James’ next goal is to play with his son, Bronny. Although Bronny just finished up high school, he is expected to be part of the 2024 NBA draft class. Some ESPN mock drafts even see Bronny as a top-10 pick. It makes sense when you consider how the team that drafts Bronny will also get LeBron. Moreover, Bronny has proven to be an amazing two-way talent.

Speaking of Bronny, he is set to play in the McDonald’s All-American game today. Last night, he also competed in the Slam Dunk Contest that was part of the festivities. The highlight of the entire night was when Bronny placed his younger brother Bryce just in front of the rim. Subsequently, the High School Senior ran up with the ball and dunked over Bryce in front of the packed arena. It was an incredible moment that immediately went viral on social media.

LeBron Reacts

As for LeBron, he is someone who is always quick to comment on the accomplishments of his sons. Consequently, it should come as no surprise that he had something to say about Bronny’s heroics. That said, this time around, James was a bit lost for words, and understandably so. “That’s insane,” he wrote on Instagram. Back in the day, LeBron won this very contest, so it must have been cool to see Bronny competing. Unfortunately, the oldest James brother did not win as he was unable to secure a dunk in the final round.

Either way, it will be interesting to see how Bronny does in the game today. He will be up against some of the best competition in the entire country. Moreover, many are wondering if he will finally announce where he is going to college. This is a big decision and the entire basketball world is curious as to who will get his services. Stay tuned to HNHH as we will bring you the latest news and updates from around the sports world.

The Dunk In Question

Ja Morant Posters Jalen Smith For Dunk Of The Year Candidate

Ja Morant threw down what was easily one of the best dunks of the year over Jalen Smith during the Memphis Grizzlies’ 130-112 win over the Indiana Pacers on Saturday. Morant added 23 points and 10 assists to extend the team’s current win streak to nine games.

When asked whether the play was one of the best dunks of his career, Morant responded, “Yeah, easy,” before referencing the difficulty. He added: “It’s what everybody has been waiting for. I finally made it.”

Morant’s teammate, Desmond Bane added that he, “ain’t seen nothing like that one. That’s probably going to go down as dunk of the year.”

“Obviously we’re having fun out there, playing hard and playing together,” Bane further said.

Morant is currently in the midst of one of the best years of his short career. Following suit, he is gearing up for the release of his first signature shoe. The sneaker will make him the 23rd NBA athlete in history to receive his own signature sneaker with Nike.

Following Saturday’s win, the Grizzlies improve to 29-13, tied with the Denver Nuggets for the best record in the Western Conference.

“We’re not playing perfect basketball,” Grizzlies coach Taylor Jenkins said of the winning streak. “I’m just glad our guys are finding different ways to win, whether we’re playing with a lead or playing from behind. Each game has presented a different challenge for us and our guys have stayed the course.”

The loss brings the Pacers down to 23-21 on the season.
