LeBron James isn’t only the basketball star in his family. It looks like his son, Lebron James Jr. (Bronny) is walking in his father’s footsteps in the sport, or maybe even surpassing his talents after ESPN National Recruiting Director and NBA Draft analyst Paul Biancardi said that the 15-year-old is a better jump shooter than his father.
“I hope LeBron is not going to get mad at me, but I think Bronny’s jump shot is a little bit better …”,” Biancardi said in a clip of his son posted on Twitter by ESPN.
The NBA star sided with the assessment on Twitter, even adding that he may have the third-best jump shot in his house.
“Can’t ever be mad at the facts!!! Flame thrower he has! And by the way I probably got the 3rd best jump shot in the household. Bryce Maximus got a cooker too!,” James wrote on Twitter.

His coach, Andre Chevalier, said his dedication and consistency had earned him the ability to do so.
“(Bronny) has been consistent in practice,” Chevalier said about James Jr. “He’s the only guy this year that’s practiced everyday. He stepped into the opportunity when it presented itself.”
It looks like in a few more years James and Bronny will be the next father and son duo who have played in the NBA.
