LeBron James Jr. throws alley-oop off backboard to Hassan Whiteside

LeBron James burst onto the basketball scene when he was a teenager before being drafted No.1 overall by the Cleveland Cavaliers 2003. It's only natural that his son, LeBron Jr., would make some noise at a young age as well. The 12-year-old put on a passing display over the weekend in a pickup game in Miami that featured Heat center Hassan Whiteside.

LeBron Jr. seems to be learning from one of the best passers in NBA history. The proud dad and a close family friend -- Chicago Bulls guard Dwyane Wade -- were also impressed by the young protégé's passing and dunking skills.

Look out, indeed.
