“Simply put, Bronny is special, and he possesses the same greatness we see from LeBron,” one west coast college assistant said of LeBron “Bronny” James, Jr. to On3.  

This seems to be a general thought throughout the coaching community. Bronny James is in the class of 2023 and the son of LeBron James. Bronny is the No. 33 player in the 2023 On3 Consensus.

James’ recruitment has been a mystery to this point. The circle is very tight. Despite college coaches across the country echoing the sentiments of his talent, no one knows where the four-star point guard’s recruitment currently stands. 

But why is this one being kept so close to the vest? 

“I tried to get involved, but you had to jump through a thousand hoops just to get to the mom,” an ACC coach told On3. “You’re not allowed to talk to the kid. You have to schedule a time on Tuesday or Thursday with the publicist just to talk to the mom.”
