A workout video from Wednesday of Bronny James with his NBA father is another piece of evidence that the big-time recruit is a truly elite prospect.
A 6-foot-3 guard at Sierra Canyon (Los Angeles, CA), James is a consensus four-star recruit. According to 247Sports, he is the No. 50 prospect in the nation and the eighth-best guard in the 2023 recruiting class.
ESPN ranks him as a four-star as well as the No. 39 recruit in the nation.
Understandably, he is getting strong and steady interest from the likes of Duke, Kansas, Kentucky, North Carolina and USC among others.
He plays for a tremendous high school program that went 26-5 last season.
Rutgers basketball appears to be in the mix for the soon-to-be senior:
“Billy Witz and Adam Zagoria of the New York Times looked at why Rutgers’ effort isn’t quite as odd as it seems.
“‘One school making an unexpected push to recruit James is Rutgers, a basketball striver,’ Witz and Zagoria wrote. ‘As far-fetched as it might seem, Rutgers is hoping coach Steve Pikiell’s strong record of development — turning lightly regarded recruits such as Geo Baker, Ron Harper Jr. and Myles Johnson into decorated Big Ten players — carries some appeal to James.’”
Yesterday, James’ father LeBron James posted a video of Bronny’s workout at the Los Angeles Lakers facility. The father-son workout video showcased a glimpse of the son’s confidence and ability on the court.

Despite his last name and famous father, it is clear that Bronny James is an outstanding and elite talent in his own right. One who certainly isn’t afraid to work hard and test himself either.
