USC Basketball: Even After A Bronny James Loss, LeBron Celebrating The Moment
Los Angeles Lakers All-NBA power forward LeBron James wasn't alone as he tuned in to his eldest son Bronny's matinee road bout today, wherein Bronny's USC Trojans fell 82-67 to the Arizona State University Sun Devils.
Bronny, a 6'4" freshman combo guard out of Sierra Canyon School in Chatsworth, scored a scant seven points on 3-of-6 shooting from the floor (1-of-3 from deep) in dished out five assists and pulled down four boards.
When he hasn't had a scheduling conflict with LA obligations, LeBron has been a courtside staple at Bronny's Galen Center home games. It sure seems like he tunes in to as many of them as he can. In the midst of today's action, the elder James posted a celebratory tweet about three generations of James gang family members joining in the fun:
James' mother Gloria, grandmother to Bronny, was apparently around to take in the action at his Brentwood home.
After suffering a cardiac arrest during a July workout, Bronny was diagnosed with a congenital heart condition. There was a moment where the state of his basketball-playing future came into question, but ultimately he was cleared to play, and eventually James made his college debut last month. He's averaging 5.8 points on 36.8% shooting from the floor, 2.5 rebounds, 1.9 assists and 0.9 steals a night.
