Although Bryce has been in the news for a while, he is not as well-known as Bronny was when he graduated from high school. Bronny was projected by 247Sports to be a 4-star recruit and the 28th-best prospect in the country at the time, and it was anticipated that he would excel at USC in the collegiate ranks.

After missing the first eight games of his rookie season due to a heart ailment, Bronny struggled to make an impact after returning to action. He averaged 4.8 points, 2.8 rebounds, and 2.1 assists per game in 25 games. Bronny joined the 2024 NBA draft despite his difficulties, and the Los Angeles Lakers selected him with the 55th overall pick. It remains to be seen if Bryce enters the NBA one day.
