Overtime Elite to play teams featuring Bronny and Bryce James, Cam and Cayden Boozer

A matchup with Bronny James headlines the 90-game 2022-23 schedule Overtime Elite unveiled in advance of their second season in existence, the league announced Monday.

OTE has expanded their three-team league to six this season, incorporating prep schools Hillcrest Academy from Phoenix, Word of God Academy from Raleigh, North Carolina, and Our Savior Lutheran from New York City, which will include home and away games at those school's locations.

Many eyeballs will be on OTE Arena opening night in Atlanta for their preseason tournament October 20 and 21, which will include games against several well-regarded teams.

California Basketball Club will feature Bronny and Bryce James, sons of LeBron James. While the Explorers boast ESPN's No. 1 player in the 2025 recruiting class, Cam Boozer, the son of former NBA All-Star Carlos Boozer. Cam Boozer is considered by some as the best prospect in high school basketball, while his twin brother Cayden Boozer is also highly regarded and will be playing as well. Also expected to play is Hoop Nation, which features Duke-commit and five-star recruit Jared McCain, and UCLA-commit Devin Williams, the No. 41 prospect in the class of 2023.

OTE currently has 30 players under its umbrella, including Amen and Ausar Thompson, projected top-five picks in the 2023 NBA draft, who will play together this season on the City Reapers squad.

A shift in strategy, offering OTE players the option of forgoing a salary while still being eligible for name, image and likeness (NIL) opportunities, has allowed the program to cast a wider net in recruiting high school players who want to maintain their NCAA eligibility.

OTE added the Nos. 3 and 6 prospects in the ESPN 2024 recruiting rankings in Naasir Cunningham
