Bryce James, the youngest son of LeBron James, announced late Sunday that he received his first college basketball scholarship offer from a Division I program.
Bryce, 15, confirmed on Instagram that he received an offer letter from Duquesne University in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. The team is coached by Keith Dambrot, who coached LeBron for two years in high school at St. Vincent-St. Mary in Akron, Ohio.
Bryce, who is listed at 6-foot-6, does not have a high school ranking, but he also attends Sierra Canyon with his older brother, Bronny. The early scouting report on Bryce by some experts is that he could eventually be better than Bronny, a four-star prospect.

The offer letter came after Bryce recently played alongside Bronny with the California Basketball Club on the AXE Euro Tour. The team played three games across Europe, marking the first time the two James brothers shared the court in a competitive setting.
Bryce played on the JV team last year as a freshman and will likely make the jump to the varsity this season. He figures to continue to receive other offers as he grows and develops on the court.
