LeBron James Jr. is just 11 years old, but this hasn't stopped universities from throwing scholarship offers in his direction. A piece by ESPN's Dave McMenamin and Brian Windhorst revealed that James Jr. already has scholarship offers in place from two of today's biggest college basketball programs: Kentucky and Duke.
Last year, the Cleveland Cavaliers star forward criticized college basketball programs for trying to recruit his son. "Yeah, he's already got some offers from colleges," James told CBS Detroit. "It's pretty crazy. It should be a violation. You shouldn't be recruiting 10-year-old kids." However, one look at his highlight videos and you can understand why these NCAA coaches are pursuing him at such a young age.
If we were to guess who has the inside track this early in the recruitment game, our money is on Duke because of two words: Mike Krzyzewski. After all, LeBron once referred to Coach K as "MY FAVORITE!!"
