Bronny James, Zaire Wade take part in NBA-style media day
Bronny James and Zaire Wade, sons of LeBron James and Dwyane Wade, got a little taste of NBA life Thursday as Sierra Canyon High School held a media day for its basketball team.
The event, which attracted both local and national outlets to the Los Angeles school, included photoshoots, interviews, and a practice session. James was there for photos but didn't address the media, according to Arash Markazi of the Los Angeles Times.

This is James and Wade's first and only season as teammates at Sierra Canyon, as Wade will be graduating at the end of the school year.
"I try to do what I can, just being a little older than him," Wade said of being a mentor to James. "We live the same lifestyle, essentially, so I just try to help him out."

The team is scheduled to play in nine states this season, including Ohio, where they'll face LeBron's alma mater, St. Vincent-St. Mary, in December.
