Bronny James, the son of Los Angeles Lakers superstar LeBron James, has social media buzzing this week.
LeBron James led the Los Angeles Lakers to a road win over the Toronto Raptors on Tuesday night, but the night belonged to Bronny James as Dick Weiss of the NY Daily News reported the oldest of the James gang is set to enter the transfer portal following his freshman season with the Trojans.
In the aftermath of the report, hundreds of fans quickly took to social media to guess where Bronny would end.
Many fans had him going to the Ohio State Buckeyes for obvious reasons. Some even had Bronny James headed to the Duke Blue Devils or even the West Virginia Mountaineers.
James expected departure from the Trojans comes after Andy Enfield, the team’s head coach, decided he was leaving to take the head coaching job at SMU. He had been USC’s head coach for 11 seasons.
Under his leadership and with Bronny James not playing a ton of minutes, the Trojans finished 15-18 (8-12 in Pac-12 play) this season and didn’t earn a berth in the NCAA Tournament despite their talent.
As for his father, LeBron didn’t confirm or deny the possibility of Bronny continuing his college basketball career elsewhere, though he did address the situation with reporters after he helped his team to a road victory over the Raptors.

Expectations were high for James when he committed to USC in May 2023 and although he was rated as a 4-star prospect and No. 28 overall player in the 2023 class, the team was stacked with the nation’s third-ranked class, led by James and Isaiah Collier.
Not helping matters was Bronny suffering cardiac arrest during a practice in July 2023, with it later being revealed he suffered from a congenital heart defect.
Bronny would sit out his first eight games and wouldn’t make his college debut until December. From there, Bronny James appeared in each of the Trojans’ final 25 games while making six starts.
In his freshman campaign, the 19-year-old averaged 4.8 points on 36.6 percent shooting, 2.8 rebounds, and 2.1 assists per contest.
