After Bronny James committed to USC, LeBron James’ younger son is following suit. Bryce James still has a few high school years left in him. But after playing for Sierra Canyon High School lately, Bryce transferred to Campell Hall. But what surprised him was how his rookie teammates towered his legend father.
It wasn’t just Bryce but fans were even taken aback when LeBron James looked small while coaching the high school kids at the sidelines.

Los Angeles Lakers star LeBron James is in no way short in height. The 6’9 forward has always played above the rim with his insane leaping ability paired with his monster tomahawk dunks.

But during his younger son Bryce’s latest basketball game at his school, James was overshadowed by high school kids. The towering forward was looking tiny in front of adolescent teens.

LeBron James’ former teammate Rajon Rondo too was spotted on the sidelines lending the four-time NBA champion a hand at coaching. And if James seemed small in front of the kids, Rondo did not stand a chance.
In the video, Bron was standing in the huddle where the rest of the kids seemed about his size if not taller than him. Then as he walked away from the huddle, one kid got up off the bench and easily towered over James.
Fans wonder: “How tall are these kids”
LeBron James getting overshadowed by high school kids caused a state of frenzy among many fans. As the video made the rounds on social media, some fans expressed their sheer disbelief to see high school kids about the same size as NBA stars.
One fan tweeted, “I don’t know what they are feeding these kids, but Bron isn’t supposed to look normal size standing next to them.”

While another fan commented, “How tall are these kids? Bron 6’9 and he looks shorter here than he does in the nba.”
