LeBron James’ son, Bronny, has experienced a health scare during a basketball training session this week.
USC recently revealed that the 18-year-old Trojans recruit would don the same iconic number 6 as his father. However, it appears as though Bronny has taken an unexpected path in his pursuit of athletic greatness, after his participation in a training session was cut short due to a cardiac arrest.
According to a report from TMZ, the James family spokesperson later confirmed that Bronny was rushed to the hospital and is now in stable condition, though he has since been released from the ICU.
LeBron and his wife, Savannah, have expressed their sincere appreciation for the level of professionalism and dedication displayed by the USC medical and athletic staff during this trying time.
Bronny’s commitment to USC has left the sports world buzzing and sure to have been the latest in the proud father’s list of accomplishments. With California basketball teams recently getting their first taste of summer leagues and workouts, Bronny was one of the eager participants as the 6-foot-3 guard looks to make his impact felt in college basketball.
It is unclear whether or not the attack will derail any of Bronny’s plans regarding the upcoming basketball season, but the James family has made it clear that they are wishing for privacy and respect during this time.
While it has been confirmed that Bronny is in a stable condition, the basketball world will keep a close eye on the situation as the 18-year-old hopefuls looks to make his mark on the court. It is clear that only the best is expected from Bronny James, as his pursuit of following in the footsteps of his iconic father will continue in the near future.
The health scare comes on the heels of actor Jamie Foxx being released from the hospital.
