How tall is Bronny James? See how height, wingspan compares to 2003 LeBron in high school

Bronny is the first member of the James family who wants to follow in his father’s footsteps.

In 2003, the Cavaliers selected LeBron James with the #1 pick in the NBA draft. 20 years later, Bronny takes the next step in his basketball journey after completing his senior season in Sierra Canyon.

Bronny is a year away from being eligible for the NBA draft, but there is already talk of him being a potential lottery pick given his defensive skills and the improvements he has made both as a shooter and a playmaker could be.

How tall and how tall is Bronny James?

Bronny is a guard listed at 6-foot-3 And 190 pounds on ESPN. This gives him a physique similar to CJ McCollum, Kendrick Nunn and Collin Sexton in the NBA.

Bronny does not have an official wingspan measurement.

How Bronny compares to LeBron as an NBA draft prospect

LeBron James measured 6-foot-7 (without shoes) and 245 pounds by a 7-foot span as an 18-year-old prior to the 2003 NBA draft. He is now listed as 6-foot-9 and 250 pounds.

It’s clear that Bronny is several inches shorter than LeBron when you see them side by side.

LeBron, of course, was the crown jewel of the 2003 NBA draft class — a No-Brainer, No. 1 pick even if he’s straight out of high school. While Bronny isn’t considered to be of the same caliber, ESPN’s Jonathan Givony picked him as a top-10 pick after an impressive senior season in Sierra Canyon.

It is not yet known where Bronny will spend the coming season. If he decides to go college, he’s reportedly considering Ohio State, USC or Oregon.

How good is Bronny James? Full prospect scouting report

Here’s what TSN’s Draft Expert Kyle Irving wrote about Bronny heading into his senior season at Sierra Canyon:

That’s the best way to describe Bronny’s role on his Sierra Canyon team prior to his senior year: he was a perennial favorite and elite full-back, but played a reserved offensive role as a scorer, second goalscorer and playmaker.

As a 6-3 18-year-old, James is already a good size and considering LeBron is 6-8, you can probably expect him to grow even more as he enters the draft process. He doesn’t have his father’s wingspan, but Bronny already uses his quick feet and strength to his advantage on the defensive, negating enemy drives with ease.

ESPN has now ranked Bronny as 28th in the high school class of 2023.
