LeBron James, the star of the Los Angeles Lakers, received an ESPY for the best record-breaking performance at the NBA. The ‘L-Train’ broke the 39-year unbroken record set by Kareem Abdul-Jabbar of 31420 points during the 20th season of his career. ‘The Chosen One’ received the award from his family and confirmed that he would return for his 21st season.
On the stage to accompany the record-setting athlete was James’ royal family, comprising of his wife, Savannah, sons Bronny and Bryce, and daughter, Zhuri. However, 16-year-old Bryce grabbed all the attention of eagle-eyed observers.

For the unversed, James has three kids, two of whom are already following in Daddy’s footsteps. Bronny James, who is 18 years old, excels in catch-and-shoot situations and is rapidly emerging as one of the premier perimeter defenders in his class. He is a capable passer with a keen basketball IQ and a willingness to distribute the ball.
Bryce James, who is just 16 years old, has inherited a more significant portion of his father’s genetic traits. He plays for the Seira Canyon School and has already bagged an NIL contract with Klutch Sports.
However, his statistics with Sierra may not be a reliable indicator of his overall basketball talent due to his limited playing time. Yet, his potential is evident, as demonstrated by his notable performance of scoring 21 points on MLK day.
But Bryce didn’t grab the headlines for his basketball prowess. On the stage with his family for his father’s accolade, many observed the growing stature of the emerging talent. The youngster is already 6’6″, with his height already eclipsing that of four-time NBA champion Stephen Curry.
