The James family went through a terrible tragedy this summer when Bronny James, son of Los Angeles Lakers star LeBron James, passed out during a workout at USC. He was later identified with a cardiac arrest.
Everyone wasn’t ready for that to happen because they were excited to see him play for the Trojans before he goes to the NBA. Because of this event, Bronny’s future in basketball was called into question. Thankfully, it was pretty quickly decided that he would get better and be able to play again soon.
It was assumed that the 19-year-old would not have a set date for his return because he needed to take it easy after having a cardiac arrest. It was exciting news on November 30 that Bronny could play basketball again, with his USC start coming up soon.
“Dr.s have now given Bronny James the all-clear to play basketball again,” a family spokesperson said. “Bronny will get one last look over by the USC staff this week. Practice will start up again next week, and he’ll be back to games soon after.” The James family is thankful for the amazing medical staff, the whole USC community, and especially all of their friends, family, and fans who have loved and supported them. Keep fighting!”
Everyone in the James family is happy to hear this because it means their son will soon be back on the floor. By going to USC, he chose to stay home. This will make for an exciting college basketball season.
In NBA history, no father and son have ever played together in the same game. LeBron has made it clear that he wants to play with his son. Since the four-time winner has made history and broken records before, this would be another great feat.
Even though he is in his 21st season, LeBron hasn’t shown any signs of slowing down. He should be ready for Bronny’s first season in 2024–25. Overall, it’s great to see Bronny play hoops again and keep working his way up to the NBA.
