Bryce James, the youngest son of Lakers star LeBron, made his Peach Jam debut on Monday and had NBA scouts squarely fixed on him throughout the event.
The Peach Jam is a premiere Nike event where the nation’s top AAU players take the court in a tournament. James tallied 12 points on 4-for-9 shooting from the field in Strive For Greatness’s 78–69 win over Expressions in the 16-under division.
Scouts from the Lakers, Magic, Cavaliers, Mavericks, Heat, Knicks, Suns, Hawks and other teams “all made James a priority on Day 1 of games,” according to Yahoo Sports. This is the third year that NBA scouts were allowed to watch the games in person.
James is a 6'4" shooting guard out of Campbell Hall School in California and is entering his junior year. His older brother, Bronny, recently committed to USC and will play there in the fall.
