James’s recruitment has been followed closely due to both his play and his family ties. The son of the NBA’s all-time leading scorer has been a topic of conversation since becoming a legitimate prospect a few seasons ago.

As the five-star player wraps up his senior year, his college decision looms.

Bronny has seen a number of interested programs reach out, though he narrowed his list to three teams in January to include Oregon, Ohio State, and USC.

That list was reportedly cut to just two, with one specific suitor sticking out as the leader in the clubhouse.

This week, Bronny James was seen on the campus of that suggested leader, which led many to speculate that his decision has been made.

James was spotted at USC on Wednesday as he toured the school and got more familiar with the program.

The Trojans have long been high on his radar, and predictions continue to flood in for his commitment on both On3 Sports and 24/7 Sports.

Southern Cal would not only give Bronny the opportunity to play for one of the PAC-12’s (Big Ten?) premiere programs, but it would also allow him to stay close to his father in Los Angeles.

In fact, in the days before that reported visit to USC he was seen rooting on the Lakers in their playoff series against the Grizzlies alongside staff members from the school’s athletic department.

in a recent podcast, “Too many stars are aligning. The biggest one is, LeBron isn’t going to send his kid all the way to Columbus, OH… He wants to play with Bronny, and [at USC], he can walk into [head coach] Andy Enfield’s office and try to control matters to make sure he has the best shot to be able to move quickly to the NBA.”
