LeBron James could not hold his excitement with the University of Southern California Trojans for the upcoming NCAA season.
The Los Angeles-based institution has the commitment of four-star recruit Bronny James for its men's basketball team. The 18-year-old is the eldest son of the Lakers icon, and he is one of the most anticipated college basketball players this season.

The 6-foot-3 guard was seen in his Trojans uniform for the first time last week, sporting his father's number 6 jersey while having "James Jr." on the back.
The elder James posted a picture of Bronny in his USC uniform alongside Juju Watkins. He was obviously excited, saying that both the men's and women's basketball teams of USC are "going up crazy this coming season."
Watkins, who is signed to James' agency Klutch Sports Group as their first female client since her junior year, is the number 1 ranked female high school basketball player in the country.

6-foot-2 point guard Isaiah Collier, the top overall prospect of this year's class, has chosen to spend his college basketball career at USC.
While James Jr. may generate a lot of publicity for the team, Collier is their clear-cut best player. He is projected to become a top-five pick in the 2024 NBA Draft.
Dennis Rodman's son DJ also plans to transfer to USC for the upcoming season.
