LeBron James Jr.

Do Not Sell My Personal Information
He already has a better jumper than his dad, haha.
 
He's impressive, but you really don't get a good idea about their pro potential until they are getting close to adult size. Around 16 they have matured enough to get some kind of idea about them. Others are really late bloomers obviously.
True, I will look stupid if he doesn't even make the league or something. But since we know his father is 6'8 and had insane natural speed and hops, we could assume he will have a bit of that genetically. Combine that with the skill assuming he keeps progressing in that area, he should be way above the competition. His instinct or basketball IQ that allows him to see the floor and pass like this already puts him way ahead mentally, but he should really separate himself once he develops physically. LeBron in comparison looks skinny in HS to what he is now, but back then he basically already had an NBA body and it sounds like he didn't hardly have to work for it. He didn't really start hitting the weights until he was in the NBA a couple years.

I was going to say Bryce does. Form isn't fully developed because he is small right now, but the jumper is still silky smooth. Watch Bryce end up being better than LeBron Jr. He might deserve his own thread in a couple years, we will see.
 
Congrats Walt, this will be the longest running thread on rcf when it's all said and done
Thank you, I hope so. I actually thought there was already a thread on him but I guess not. We can look back in this thread when LeBron James Jr. is a 15 year NBA vet and know we started the thread before he was even 15 :chuckle:
 
Not afraid to admit he would probably (definitely) destroy me in a game of 1 on 1
 
Gonna have a lot of minutes on his legs by the time he even makes the league with the way he's having to carry those teams...
 
Only 2.5 more years until he is in High School. That's when the madness will really start. May the best private HS recruiter win.




What's the story behind Jeffrey and Marcus Jordan giving up on basketball a few years ago?

I can't imagine him not attending Saint V. Isn't that like one of the main reasons LeBron came back?

They weren't very good?

or because he didnt take midseason sabbaticals in Miami during high school

Their stats at UCF were decent. I think they just got sick of being Jordan's kids and were already rich. Don't be surprised if that happens to LeBron's kids too.
 
I am looking forward to the day we trade LeBron for his son. Make it happen Danny Ferry Jr.

I don't think Jordan's kids were that good at all. I think the eldest was a walk on at Illinois. But that seem more like charity.

Just like Joe Montana's son was a walk on at Notre Dame. That clearly was charity to Joe, because his son couldn't play at all.

Marcus was a utility guy a bit like sir dom. His coach loved him and he was the opposite to Michael in his desire and ability to score IIRC
 
D Wade's son can ball too. He is three grades above LBJ Jr., but look at his progression here. As a 5th grader in the first video, and he is now 13 (turned 14 shortly after) in the second video, so an 8th grader? Either way, here is his progression in 3-4 years time:
