Although Bronny James seems to have fallen out of the limelight for a while, his younger brother Bryce James seems to be the new focus of attention. As some NBA fans might have already heard, LeBron James’ eldest son Bronny caused quite a commotion after news broke out that he suffered a cardiac arrest while attending practice at USC.
Considering that he is only 18 years old and has aspirations of joining the league, this is quite a grim situation. Especially for LeBron James since he has made it clear that he wishes to play on the same team as Bronny before finally retiring from the NBA.
Since Bronny won’t be back in basketball shape for a while, Bryce has been given a fair amount of media coverage. That said, let us take a closer look at his most recent in-game clip and find out how fans feel about it.
NBA fans call out Bryce James for traveling in order to shake off his defender
Some NBA experts and analysts have claimed that Bryce James has a greater amount of potential and a higher ceiling when compared to his elder brother Bronny. After all, he is listed at around 6’5 and is only 16 years old. That means it is quite possible for him to grow even taller. In comparison, Bronny is 6’3 and 18 years old.
Traveling is a growing problem that has greatly affected the game of basketball. To fans who are unfamiliar with the rules, it occurs when the offensive player takes more than two steps while gathering the ball or shuffles his feet in the process of doing so.
Ewww that’s nasty Bryce James 🤮 @bigtimehoopsDMV pic.twitter.com/dAXlSkqA1E

As we can tell from the latest video of Bryce James, he clearly shuffled his feet before faking a pass that caught his defender completely off guard. He then reached back and finished the uncontested jumper causing the audience to explode and cheer loudly.
Perhaps the bending of the rules and the exceptions that NBA stars are given is the cause for uncalled travels such as this. After all, fans will know that even LeBron James has been caught traveling quite a few times throughout his 20-year career in the league.
In any case, this was just an ordinary high school game. Hopefully, Bryce works on his footing and fundamentals in the near future. That will increase his chances of making it to the NBA.
