Shareef O'Neal is not having it when it comes to online trolls making fun of him and Bronny James. On Tuesday, July 25, Shareef took to Twitter to respond to an internet troll who made a jab at Bronny's recent hospitalization for cardiac arrest.
The troll had tweeted, "Bronny started hanging with Shareef and now look. @SSJreef stay yo ass away from him he’s destined for greatness not overseas." Shareef, who had open-heart surgery in October 2018, issued a mature response, writing, "That is very disrespectful of you to say. I’ve been around Bronny for a very long time before this happened... I’ll pray for you. You need help... sick that you would even say something like that #dummy."
Shareef and Bronny had been seen hanging out together earlier this month in Los Angeles. The news of Bronny's health emergency came as a shock to many. After being taken to the intensive care unit, the 18-year-old was reported to be in stable condition by Tuesday. The James family released a statement, thanking the USC medical and athletic staff, and asked for respect and privacy during this time.
Bronny was a four-star recruit and a standout in the McDonald’s All-American Game in March. With his graduation from Sierra Canyon High School in May, he has had all eyes on him ever since. Shareef is standing up for his friend and sending a message to trolls that this kind of behavior is unacceptable.
