LeBron James’ 10-year-old son is a chip off the old block

"Bronny" put on a hell of a show at a Youth All-Star tournament

In the James household, the apple doesn’t fall far from the tree.

And even if it does, I’m sure LeBron Jr will be all over that rebound.

The gossoon may only be 10, but he’s already showing himself to be a bit of a ball player, if this highlights reel from a Youth All-Star tournament are anything to go by.

The wee man was sinking jumpers, throwing defence-splitting passes, and making steals, wearing a pair of shorts so long and baggy that he may have actually borrowed them off the auld lad.

“Bronny”, wearing number 0 – because that’s one of the daft things they do in America – was playing for the Gulf Coast Blue Chips, who sound more like a computer software company than a basketball team, and it won’t come as a surprise that they ended up winning the tournament.
