Bronny James, the college basketball player and son of Los Angeles Lakers star LeBron James, is expected to make a full recovery from his heart attack on July 24. The James family released a statement to People Magazine that a comprehensive evaluation at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center and follow-up evaluations at the Mayo Clinic and Atlantic Health/Morristown Medical Center had revealed that Bronny had a significant congenital heart defect, a condition that is treatable.
On July 27, Cedars-Sinai Medical Center shared that Bronny had been discharged and was at home resting with his family. LeBron James took to Twitter to thank those who had sent love and prayers to the family. He expressed gratitude for the support, stating that "We have our family together, safe and healthy, and we feel your love."
Vince Iwuchukwu, a USC player who had a similar experience, took his time returning to the hardwood after he was treated at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center for a heart attack suffered during a January 2023 game against the University of Colorado.
Bronny was projected to be a first-round pick in the NBA draft next summer and potentially play alongside his father. However, the James family will put that on the backburner for now to prioritize Bronny's recovery.
