LeBron James and son Bronny delight Ohio State fans by responding to ‘O-H’ call with ‘I-0’ gesture as NBA legend sports Buckeyes team gear – with rising high school basketball star taking potential college recruiting visit

LeBron and Bronny James were seen on the sidelines of Ohio State’s season opening game against Notre Dame on Saturday night.

LeBron and Bronny were captured on video throwing up the ‘I-O’, in response to the fans ‘O-H’ call.

The visit also marked a college visit for Bronny, as he is one of the more sought after high school basketball recruits in the nation. Bronny recently moved up ESPN’s top 100 recruit list, and is currently ranked No. 35.

Major NCAA programs like Memphis, Kentucky, Michigan, and USC have already offered scholarships to Bronny, according to reports.

It was recently rumored that the Oregon Ducks were the favorites to land Bronny’s signature, however LeBron quickly shot down that rumor.

It has long been known that Ohio State is a school that is very close to LeBron’s heart. The Akron, Ohio native has stated on multiple occasions that he roots for the Buckeyes – he sported team gear tonight – and would have attended Ohio State had he gone to college.  

It would be safe to assume that the younger James also has an affection for the school his father passionately roots for. ‘We want Bronny’ was chanted by Ohio fans ahead of the game.

Regardless of what school he decides to attend it is likely that Bronny will declare for the NBA following only one year in school. 

LeBron has already discussed wanting to play on the same team as both Bronny and his other son Bryce in the NBA, and will likely attempt to orchestrate such a move when the time comes. 

LeBron and Bronny were not the only stars in attendance for the highly-anticipated game. 

Boston Celtics star Jayson Tatum, as well as Ohio State football alumni like Chase Young, Terry McLaurin, Curtis Samuel, Ezekiel Elliot, and more were also spotted in attendance.
