The 19-year-old Bronny, who has missed eight games this season, will be back in the USC Trojans starting lineup on Sunday.

Tragically, in late July, the son of NBA star LeBron James, Bronny, experienced a heart attack during practice, causing shockwaves in the sports world and leading to a two-day hospitalization. However, Bronny has returned to practice with the Trojans this week and is expected to play in Sunday’s game after receiving the all-clear last month.

LeBron James, the four-time NBA champion, expressed his excitement and pride in his son’s progress, calling it a significant milestone for their family. He anticipates watching Bronny take another step forward in his basketball career during the upcoming game.

James has been vocal about his excitement for his son’s basketball journey. After Bronny graduated from high school and committed to playing men’s basketball for USC, LeBron shared that it was one of the best days of his life. He expressed immense pride in Bronny’s decision, highlighting that he is the first member of their family to attend university.

There have been hints that Bronny is gearing up for his USC debut, with LeBron even suggesting that he might sit out a Lakers regular-season game if it coincides with his son’s first game. In a recent interview, LeBron mentioned warning his teammates about this possibility, emphasizing the importance of family over everything else. He assured that he would make sure to watch Bronny’s debut game once he is cleared to play.

Fortunately, Bronny won’t be playing in USC’s match against Long Beach State on Sunday afternoon. Despite his absence, USC, with a 5-3 record, has been performing well, and head coach Andy Enfield noted Bronny’s excellent performance since returning to class in late August.
