LET’S HEAR YOUR STORY
Every few years, one or two players pop up on the high school circuit with familiar last names. Shareef O'Neal, Shaquille O'Neal's son, was a four-star power forward who originally committed to UCLA before transferring to LSU. Zaire Wade, Dwyane Wade's son, played alongside Bronny James at Sierra Canyon High School (Chatsworth, California) before joining the Utah Jazz's G League team for a season. In 2019, Scotty Pippen Jr. (now playing for the Los Angeles Lakers' G League team), Scottie Pippen's son, and K.J. Martin (Houston Rockets), Kenyon Martin's son, shared the court at Sierra Canyon, with both dads watching from the sideline each game.
Cameron Boozer, Sophomore
Cayden Boozer, Sophomore
Father: Carlos Boozer — 13-year NBA career, two-time NBA All-Star
The Boozer twins took the basketball world by storm last year as freshmen playing varsity and continue to get better each time they step on the court. Cameron is a 6-foot-9 forward who is the best high school basketball player in the country, regardless of class. His twin brother, Cayden, is one the top guards in the sophomore class, and the two of them on the court together make up one of the best duos in high school basketball.
D.J. Wagner, Senior
Father: Dajuan Wagner — five-year NBA career, sixth overall pick in 2002 NBA Draft
Since his freshman year, D.J. has been one of the top players in his class. And his legacy doesn't just start with his father, Dajuan. His grandfather, Milt, also played in the NBA from 1986 to '90. They will make history by becoming the first trio through three generations to appear in the McDonald's All-American Game.
Bronny James, Senior
Bryce James, Sophomore
Father: LeBron James — Los Angeles Lakers forward, four-time NBA champion, 19-time NBA All-Star
Through all the hype, criticism, popularity and fanfare, Bronny and Bryce have found ways to progress as basketball players. Bronny has been particularly patient with his development, and he plays the right way. His stat line might not be overly impressive, but players love playing with him, and he makes his teammates better. He's one of the best on-ball defenders in the senior class (forcing five steals in his most recent game) and has a consistent 3-point jump shot. Bronny is still undecided on a college program, but USC, Ohio State and Oregon are still in the mix.
Dylan Harper, Junior
Father: Ron Harper — 15-year NBA career, five-time NBA champion
Dylan is one of the best players in the junior class and has high-major offers from Duke, Kansas, Indiana, Michigan, UCLA, Missouri and Rutgers (where his older brother, Ron Harper Jr., played). The 6-foot-5 guard is a top-10 player in his class and continues to outperform other top players in his grade every time he steps on the court. Over the summer, he averaged 15.9 points, 6.2 rebounds and 4.9 assists on Nike's EYBL circuit, the most competitive AAU league in the country.
Ashton Hardaway, Senior
Father: Penny Hardaway — 14-year NBA career, four-time NBA All-Star
Ashton shoots the ball well and is a hybrid defender who can guard the perimeter or bang in the post down low. He's being utilized in different lineups his senior year at Sierra Canyon, playing alongside Bronny, and getting periodic one-on-one coaching from LeBron.
Andrej Stojaković, Senior
Father: Peja Stojaković — 13-year NBA career, NBA champion (2011), three-time NBA All-Star
Andrej went from unranked to McDonald's All-American in a little more than a year. His recruitment picked up this past summer, and he held offers from Oregon, Texas, UCLA and Kentucky before signing with Stanford this fall. The 6-foot-7 guard is averaging 24.3 points per game in his junior season at Jesuit High School in Northern California. He has continued to score at every level in his final high school season. He has a natural feel for the game, with a solid jumper and nice touch around the rim when getting downhill. Born in Greece, Stojaković is Peja's eldest son.
Jase Richardson, Junior
Jaxon Richardson, Freshman
Father: Jason Richardson — 14-year NBA career, fifth overall pick in 2001 NBA Draft
Jase and Jaxon are playing varsity for Bishop Gorman High School (Las Vegas). Jase is a 6-foot-4 point guard with a deadly shot from deep range, while Jaxon is a 6-foot-5 pure athlete who can jump out of the gym and is showing tremendous upside early as a freshman. Jaxon's first high school points came from an alley-oop pass from Jase when Jaxon sneaked behind his man when the defense collapsed the lane.
Kiyan Anthony, Sophomore
Father: Carmelo Anthony — 19-year NBA veteran, 10-time NBA All-Star
Like Bryce James, Kiyan is starting to come into his own as a prospect at just 15 years old. A 6-foot-4 guard, his shot has improved since he worked out with his dad and trainer Chris Brickley last summer and throughout the high school season. In December, Kiyan and his team, Christ the King (New York), traveled to Southern California to face Bronny, Bryce and Sierra Canyon, with both dads sitting courtside.

As well as taking home the prize money, 35-year-old Weinman also got his hands on the WSOP Main Event bracelet.

Daniel Weinman won the World Series of Poker's main event world championship on Monday in Las Vegas, earning $12.1 million along the way. Playing in the tournament for a 16th year, Weinman was tops in a deep pool of 10,043 players vying for $93.39 million. His victory came after just 164 hands at the final table. "I was honestly on the fence about even coming back and playing this tournament," the 35-year-old Atlanta native told reporters afterward. Weinman's final table featured Jan-Peter Jachtmann, who landed in fourth place and took home $3 million, as well as Toby Lewis, who finished seventh and secured $1.42 million. According to the Las Vegas Review-Journal, the main event's entry pool far outpaced the previous record of 8,773 set in 2006. "I've always kind of felt that poker was kind of going in a dying direction, but to see the numbers at the World Series this year has been incredible," Weinman said. "And to win this main event, it doesn't feel real. I mean, [there's] so much luck in a poker tournament. I thought I played very well." Steven Jones finished second, securing $6.5 million. And Adam Walton settled for third and a $4 million prize.
