Gary Payton: “LeBron’s son ‘committed’ to Sierra Canyon in LA

By JACOB POLACHECK

Nine-time NBA All-Star Gary Payton said Monday in a video interview with Sheena Marie of Black Sports Online that LeBron James will send his son Lebron James Jr. to Sierra Canyon (CA) School in Los Angeles next year.

“Anything could happen. People don’t look at everything. [LeBron James’] son just committed to Sierra Canyon which is in the valley of LA,” said Payton.

“That’s a move that they’re going to make,” Payton continued. “If everybody looks at it with a son at that age, you don’t want to be away from him during that period of time. During the time that we’re having, basketball is school time. I think that [Bronny] needs a father during that time and that’s it. I don’t think LeBron is that type of parent, I think he wants to be around his son a lot and see his son play a lot.”
