On July 24, Beijing time, Lakers star James, who was preparing for the Olympics, was complained about by NCAA reporter Ant Wright. The reason is that James recently posted a highlight of his youngest son Bryce participating in the Peach Jam competition, praising his son's comprehensive skill set, but Wright said that Bryce's performance was actually poor.

According to official statistics, Bryce James averaged 22.2 minutes per game and only 5.6 points and 2.4 rebounds. Wright complained: "LeMedia is starting again...... He shot 31 percent from the field and 17.6 percent from three-point range. Wright thinks Bryce's ability is average, and his exposure is now earned by his father James.

James' two sons have not escaped the media's complaints. First of all, Bronny's performance in the early stage of the summer league was very sluggish, once he made 0 of 15 three-pointers, and the rebound in the last two games can be regarded as earning some face for Bronny and James. It was previously reported that James' youngest son Bryce is above Bronny's talent, but his performance in Peach Jam seems to have slapped this statement in the face, such data shows that his ability is indeed average.

I don't know that Anthony's son Kiyan, who is also participating in the Peach Jam, can score nearly 20 points per game. The latest rankings show that Keyan is ranked No. 41 in ESPN's 2025 rookie rankings, while Bryce is only in the top 200 in 247 sports.

If Bryce's development doesn't meet expectations, I'm afraid even the No. 55 pick will be difficult to secure. At least for now, he is not as capable as Kiyan, and even less than most of the good players in his class. Does James have a chance to make the father and son trio on the same stage?
