Bronny James has had some pretty high expectations thrust upon him.
As the eldest son of the greatest basketball player of all time, Bronny has had eyes on him and his potential development into an NBA talent since he was old enough to dribble.
This year, he'll take another big step into the spotlight, joining a loaded roster at Sierra Canyon — a high-school powerhouse and California's two-time defending state champions. MaxPreps wrote about James' imminent arrival, noting that getting playing time as a freshman might not be easy, with so much talent already present at the school.

In response, LeBron James tweeted out a loving and sincere scouting report of his son, saying that he was ready to be a team player and grow as an athlete.
"Expect a kid that will play for his teammates," James wrote. "Will work hard, pay his dues and when his number is called he'll make mistakes like any kid but will be ready and coached very well. Someone who doesn't care about rankings cause the only thing that matters is his team success."
