Bronny James is following in his father’s footsteps and joining the Nike family — the high school hoops star just inked a NIL deal with the shoe giant.
Nike made the announcement just minutes ago … saying the 18-year-old Sierra Canyon baller is one of five high school prospects who recently signed Name, Image and Likeness endorsements with the Swoosh.
It was a no-brainer to get Bronny on board — especially considering Nike and LeBron James have been attached at the hip since he was drafted in 2003 … and collaborated on 20 signature shoes together.
We’re excited to announce the newest student athletes to join our Nike family: Caitlin Clark, Bronny James, Haley Jones, DJ Wagner and Juju Watkins.

The other student-athletes getting NIL deals include Caitlin Clark, Haley Jones, Juju Watkins, and DJ Wagner, son of ex-NBAer Dajuan Wagner.
Wagner is considered one of the best hoopers in the class of 2023 — and is listed #1 on ESPN’s Top 100 players.
There’s a good chance Bronny takes his talents to Columbus to play at Ohio State next season … which just so happens to be a Nike school.
No word on how much the contract is worth … but considering Nike already made a billion-dollar deal with LeBron, we’re sure it’s a decent amount.
