In a recent interview, 17-year-old Bryce James, the youngest son of NBA superstar LeBron James, made a bold claim. When asked if he could beat his father in a one-on-one game, Bryce confidently responded with a single word: “Me”.
“Who do you think would win 1 on 1, you or your dad?”
“Me.”

Bryce James, currently a high school junior, has been making waves with his impressive skills on the court. Standing at 6’6″ and weighing nearly 180 pounds, Bryce has the physical attributes and raw talent that have earned him recognition as a promising basketball prospect. Despite being only 17, he has already received offers from several Division I colleges, including Ohio State University, Duquesne University, and the University of Southern California.
As Bryce continues to develop his game, he has the potential to follow in his father’s footsteps and make a name for himself in the NBA. With a few more years of high school and college basketball ahead of him (he’d be NBA Draft eligible in 2026), Bryce has ample time to hone his skills and prove that his confidence is well-founded. Whether he can truly best his father in a one-on-one game remains to be seen, but one thing is certain: Bryce James is a young player to watch.
