Chatsworth (Calif.) Sierra Canyon three-star shooting guard Bryce James, the second oldest son of NBA legend LeBron James, took a visit to Arizona earlier this month.

James is the nation’s No. 204 overall prospect in the 2025 cycle according to the On3 Industry Ranking — a weighted average that utilizes all four major recruiting media companies. He is the No. 54 shooting guard in the class and the No. 26 recruit from the state of California.

Arizona currently holds the No. 13 recruiting class in the On3 Industry Team Recruiting Rankings. The Wildcats have just one commitment — Wolfeboro (N.H.) Brewster Academy elite four-star small forward Dwayne Aristode. Aristode is the No. 10 overall prospect and the No. 3 small forward in the 2025 On3 150.

This summer, Bryce spoke with On3’s Joe Tipton about what it was like getting to see his father and older brother, Bronny, play professional basketball together.

“From the cardiac arrest and all the difficulties that he’s had in his career in college, you know it’s amazing then seeing him play with his dad,” James said of his brother, Bronny.

Bryce James Scouting Summary

On3’s scouting and rankings team writes this about James as a prospect.

“Bryce James continues to get more comfortable in his player archetype. The son of LeBron James has a projectable frame with nice length. Where he shines is spreading the floor, knocking down shots from the corners. He will need to continue adding strength and tightening his handle, there is not much self-creation at this point.

“The jump shot is consistent, finding his balance points off movement or the catch. He has a quick and consistent release. Bryce’s game is different than his brother Bronny’s, who is a more point of attack guard. Bryce has found comfort playing in angles and off the ball.”
