The biggest event in high school basketball took place tonight as the 2023 McDonald’s All-American Game’s first day saw some star-making moments.
While the final game will take place tomorrow, today featured the Powerade Dunk Contest. Bronny James was a participant and pulled off an incredible dunk by jumping over his 6’6″ younger brother Bryce James to finish with authority. The fans loved the dunk as well.

The joke about LeBron always knowing what’ll happen in the future also made an appearance, “LeBron wrote this moment down in a time capsule 30 years ago I just found it digging around in Akron.”

LeBron James had shared his thoughts on Bronny after his first dunk, pissed that his son didn’t get a unanimous 10 for his efforts. The dunk contest was a great platform for Bronny, even though he ended up finishing as the runner-up behind Duke commit Sean Stewart.
Bronny James Hoping To Make The NBA Dream Come True
The comparisons for Bronny James’ scouting profile show that he’s going to be a very different player than his dad. He’s been ‘compared to the likes of Jrue Holiday, Marcus Smart, and De’Anthony Melton. These are all players that have earned their place in the NBA through solid defense and spacing while playing with incredible grit and toughness. He’s a projected top-10 pick in the 2024 NBA Draft.
Many would assume Bronny would be a flashy player given the status he’s entering the league with. Instead, Bronny is a genuine hustle and grit player that works hard for every possession on the court. He’s picking between colleges right now but might even look to go pro for his final year outside the NBA.
