Bryce James posts an incredible off-the-backboard dunk
Being a great dunker seems to run in the James family as LeBron James is one of the best in-game dunkers in the NBA has ever seen in the 75 years of its existence. Bronny began dunking a few years ago and now as a senior at Sierra Canyon can windmill or hit a between-the-legs dunk with ease.

What makes this clip even more impressive is the fact that he did it so effortlessly. It felt as though he could’ve added more theatrics to this dunk given just how casually he threw it down. Not to mention the fact that he’s merely a sophomore in high school.
LeBron James has been asked by millions of fans across the world to participate in the dunk contest.
