Amid a sold-out crowd and LeBron James in attendance, Bronny James, less than five months post-cardiac arrest, made his eagerly awaited collegiate debut on Sunday for USC.
Fresh off winning the NBA In-Season Tournament, LeBron witnessed his son’s debut against Long Beach State, where Bronny came off the bench under a minutes restriction.
In 17 minutes, Bronny contributed 4 points, 3 rebounds, 2 assists, and 2 steals, showcasing his resilience after a health setback.
Despite a missed opportunity in the final seconds, resulting in overtime and an 84-79 loss, the packed Galen Center erupted in a standing ovation as Bronny checked into the game.
