Bryce James, son of NBA legend LeBron James, has reportedly been offered a scholarship to play basketball at Ohio State University. This offer came during his unofficial visit on Oct. 7, and Bryce confirmed the speculation by tweeting “Blessed to receive an offer from Ohio State #GoBuckeyes.”
Bryce is currently a junior at Notre Dame High School in Sherman Oaks, CA and is listed as a four-star recruit on ESPN. He has also received an offer from Duquesne University, although he has yet to take any official or unofficial visits there. At six foot six inches tall and a shooting guard, Bryce has the potential to be an NBA player, according to NBA Draft Room. They describe him as “a very skilled outside shooter with a soft touch and near perfect form.”
To show his delight with the Ohio State offer, Bryce posted pictures of himself on Instagram wearing a Buckeyes jersey, posing with his mother, Savannah James. He captioned the set “Buckeye Nation, how we feeling?” His older brother Bronny James replied in excitement with “COMPYYYYYY.”
This offer could prove to be very interesting in terms of potential NIL deals. In 2022, Bryce signed an NIL deal with Klutch Sports, an agency founded by his father’s longtime friend and business partner, Rich Paul. On3, a site that tracks NIL deals, estimated his NIL value at $1.2 million, but this could increase with the Ohio State offer. According to the site, Bryce is currently the most profitable high school basketball player in the country.
