LeBron James’ Son’s Collapse Cause Identified: ‘Significant’ Defect Detected
Bronny James’ Cardiac Arrest: A Journey to Recovery
In a shocking turn of events, Bronny James, the 18-year-old son of Los Angeles Lakers superstar LeBron James, experienced cardiac arrest during a basketball workout at the University of Southern California (USC) last month. This incident was later attributed to a congenital heart defect, as confirmed by a family spokeswoman.
Following his collapse on July 24, Bronny was immediately rushed to Cedars-Sinai Medical Center, where he received prompt medical attention. Subsequently, he sought further medical consultations at the renowned Mayo Clinic and Atlantic Health-Morristown Medical Center in New Jersey.
“It is an anatomically and functionally significant Congenital Heart Defect which can and will be treated,”

A recent statement released by Stephanie Rosa, representing the LeBron James Family Foundation, shed light on the probable cause of Bronny’s sudden cardiac arrest. The statement assured everyone that the condition is treatable, expressing confidence in Bronny’s full recovery and his imminent return to the basketball court.
After spending three days at Cedars-Sinai, Bronny was discharged and wasted no time in enjoying a family dinner in Santa Monica. Despite this setback, his commitment to USC, where he had been recruited as a top prospect from Sierra Canyon School, remains unwavering.
It is worth noting that Bronny’s cardiac arrest is not an isolated incident within the USC basketball program. Last July, Vincent Iwuchuwku, a 7-foot-1 center, also experienced a similar episode during a workout. However, after six months of recovery, Vincent made a triumphant return to the court, eventually playing in 14 games for the Trojans as a freshman.
Looking Ahead
While Bronny’s absence from USC’s European tour this month is disappointing, his health and well-being take precedence. The basketball community eagerly awaits his return, as he continues to work towards his dreams.
