Bronny James isn’t NBA icon LeBron James’ only kid heading toward a bright future in professional basketball. LeBron’s youngest son, Bryce, is also following in his footsteps on the court.


On Saturday, 16-year-old Bryce revealed some extremely exciting news about his future as a college ball player. “Blessed to receive an offer from Ohio State #GoBuckeyes,” the teen wrote on X (formerly Twitter). The Ohio State University, located in Columbus, OH, is notably just two hours from LeBron’s hometown of Akron. Bryce’s 19-year-old brother Bronny also received an offer from Ohio State before he ultimately committed to the University of Southern California.
