The Lakers are buzzing once again! Shaking off their recent struggles, the LA side is back to their winning ways and proved it tonight by defeating the Kings for their third straight victory. The credit goes to LeBron James, who took over with another epic performance. But with the Sactown mission accomplished, successfully, LBJ immediately shifted his focus to the ongoing Ohio State game, the place that could be his boy Bryce’s next destination!
Yes, during his postgame interview, Bron was seen multitasking as he was simultaneously watching the Ohio State vs. Tennessee game. And he even taunted rookie Dalton Knecht about his alma mater getting crushed in the encounter. As the Buckeyes scored another touchdown to take their score to 21, the Ohio native began clapping in excitement and called out Knecht, “Hey DK! 21 then. Don’t worry about it.”
Of course, LeBron James’ public support for Ohio State could also be because Bryce is rumored to commit to them next fall. He has already received an official offer from the Uni and many believe that their $1.3 billion program could lure Bryce to Ohio State.
Well, the younger James son also has an offer from Duquesne University, whose team is coached by Bron’s former High School teammate Dru Joyce III. However, analysts believe that there is a solid 92.7% chance Bryce picks Ohio State over Duquesne because of their superior program and also The Chosen One’s Ohio roots.

Just like the reporters in the room, the internet was also left buzzing after LBJ’s hilarious post-game antics as comments like, “LeGoat things” and “LeOhioStateFan” began flooding in. Moreover, fans were ecstatic about Ohio State dominating Tennessee on the same night of LeBron James’ takeover game.
Well, the King went off for a game-high 32 points tonight to lead his team to victory. Moreover, the LA side needed the performance from their vet leader, especially because AD was unable to perform at a high level and finished with only ten points. Meanwhile, Ohio State was dominant, just like LBJ as they scored 21 points in the first half, taking a commanding lead over Tennessee.
Fans were happy that LeBron “was showing love for Ohio State” as he continues to do for all his hometown teams, despite playing for the Lakers. And that support is only going to increase if his son commits to Ohio State next year. Well, reports further suggest that Bryce isn’t only linked to Duquesne and Ohio. He’s also been making ‘unofficial’ visits to Arizona and USC, his brother’s alma mater too. One thing is clear- in recent months, the 3-star hoopster’s athleticism has improved significantly.
Currently listed at 6-4 and 190 pounds, the 17-year-old could grow much further. Previously touted as “the best shooter in this household” by LeBron in 2018, Bryce shot 15-of-27 (55.6%) from distance, over five games at EYBL Session 4 in Kansas City, Mo, showing glimpses of true raw potential.
