Bronnie James dunks over 6-foot-5 brother Bryce in McDonald’s All-American dunk contest 20 years after Abe LeBron won the skills contest
Bronny James jumped his brother Bryce in the McDonald’s All-American Dunk Contest – 20 years after their father LeBron won the event.
The Los Angeles Lakers star’s kids took to the floor for the prestigious skills competition Monday night.
It was likely NBA player and Sierra Canyon hotshot Bronney, 18, who was vying for supremacy and called his 15-year-old brother in the championship round.
Bruni’s six-foot-three dunked on his 6-foot-5 brother after several attempts, earning him a score of 63/70 from the judges.
The teen lost in the final to Duke forward Shaun Stewart but the King was more than impressed.

He posted on his Instagram profile: “This is crazy!!!” amazing. McDonalds Slam Dunk’ Contest, along with a photo of the camera with a shot of Bronny landing a dunk.
LeBron wasn’t in attendance at the Delmar Sports Complex in Houston, Texas, but his wife, Savannah, was.

Bruni scored 65/70 in his opening round and then 57/70 before advancing to the finals.
The 18-year-old guard, who was officially named a five-star college freshman, played his last high school basketball game earlier this month.
Bronny has yet to announce where he will play basketball after graduating high school, but Ohio State is the favorite to sign him for the 2023 college basketball season.
While he still has two years to go before he can make his NBA debut, there’s a strong chance Bruni will suit up with his dad in a league game as LeBron has talked several times about his desire to team up with his son.
Before then, Bruni will take to the court at tonight’s McDonald’s All-American game.
