WATCH: Bronny James throws down monstrous poster dunk

Bronny James needs no introduction to basketball followers as the son of NBA legend LeBron James. His name is well known across the country — and across the world.

Because of his stardom, James and a team of prospects from California are playing in a three-game European series being televised nationally by ESPN. And on Monday, during the second game of that series, James threw down a monstrous dunk that is certain to viral immediately.

Off a rebound, the 6-foot-2 James coasted through the defense before taking off from just outside the restricted area and throwing down a right-hand slam on an opposing defender from the French U-18 select team.

James’ dunk put the California Basketball Club up 45-33 at that point, with a little under two minutes left in the second quarter. In the first game of the week for CBC earlier this weekend, James notched 11 points, six rebounds and three assists.

He ranks as the No. 43 overall prospect in the On3 Consensus, a complete and equally weighted industry-generated average that utilizes all four major recruiting media companies. The oldest of LeBron’s three children, Bronny has led a quiet recruitment thus far, with more intel on the schools recruiting him only coming to light recently.

Among the schools in contention, according to On3’s Jamie Shaw, are: Ohio State, Michigan, Oregon, and Southern Cal.

James ranks No. 1 in On3’s NIL 100. His Name, Image, and Likeness On3 Valuation is $6.4 million, or $78,000 per post, across all platforms. The On3 NIL Valuation is the industry’s leading index that sets the standard market NIL value for high school and college athletes.

Bronny James Scouting Summary

“Bronny James is a sturdy guard, with a strong frame, long arms, and broad shoulders. The 6-2/6-3 guard is a noted defender at the point of attack. He moves his feet well laterally and plays with a chip on his shoulder. Offensively he does not really show blow-by burst in the half-court, but he attacks closeouts well, and he is strong in the paint. James is good in transition, has a little bit of wiggle there, and can get on the rim. He is explosive in straight lines. James needs to tighten his handle in space.

… One of his biggest areas of improvement is from three, where he has cleaned up his mechanics – especially the release – and gathered his balance. James made 13 threes in six Peach Jam games at a 35 percent clip. He will need to finish better at the rim, especially in traffic. When playing as the primary initiator, he takes care of the ball with a better than 2.5:1 assists to turnover ratio at Peach Jam.”
