Carmelo’s Anthony’s son, Kiyan, has spoken about his relationship with LeBron James’ youngest son, Bryce, since the pair could be pitted against each other in the NBA one day.
Kiyan is the number one prospect from New York and is ranked number 33 overall in the 2025 recruiting class.
Bryce has also been making headlines recently, after his game with Sierra Canyon from this past weekend at the Avance at L’attitude Classic.

The younger Anthony gave his thoughts about the youngest James son and detailed their close relationship.
“He’s a sharpshooter, he can really shoot,” Kiyan said of Bryce.
“When he get hot, he really don’t miss. He’s bouncy. He’s more bouncy than me, I ain’t even gonna lie. I’m not even gonna say he look like his pops, but it kind of do look like his pops when he dunk a little bit. We basically grew up together even though he lived in LA.
“But I feel like family, that’s like my cousin. My pops and his pops played together on the Lakers. It was a little different situation because they wasn’t rivals, they was really best friends, but the media always gonna make it seem like they got something against each other.
“It’s not similar with me and Bryce, but everybody just want one of us to be like, ‘Oh, we better, oh, I’m way better than him’. Like we would never say that about each other. We just go out there and compete, and then the pins obviously gonna start flowing in.”
Potentially seeing Bryce and Kiyan play against each other in the NBA one day with LeBron and Melo watching from the sidelines will be epic.
