Three kids from Akron made the cover of Sports Illustrated, and the biggest of the three kids sounds pretty excited about it.

LeBron James tweeted the cover showing him with sons Bronny and Bryce, and the King's accompanying message included lots of exclamation points:

Of course, there's also a Sports Illustrated story that goes with that cover:

LeBron James Wants to Play With His Sons, Bronny and Bryce. Got a Problem With That?

Bronny and Bryce James are teammates at Sierra Canyon High School in Chatsworth, California. 

Bronny James is a 6-foot-3 senior guard ranked by 247 Sports as the No. 45 senior recruit in the country. Oregon, Ohio State and Michigan are among his many suitors.

Bryce James, a sophomore forward who turned 15 earlier this summer, recently hit a growth spurt to reach 6-foot-6. He earned his first Division I offer last week, from Duquesne.

LeBron James first graced the Sports Illustrated cover in 2002 as a 17-year-old senior at St. Vincent-St. Mary High School in Akron, Ohio. Bronny James' name first appeared on an SI cover in June of 2021 when he was 16.

Don't expect the news to slow down involving "The Chosen One" and "The Chosen Sons."
