Congenital Heart Condition Suspected as Root Cause of Bronny James' Cardiac Arrest

LOS ANGELES (AP) — The cardiac arrest incident involving Bronny James, the 18-year-old son of Los Angeles Lakers superstar LeBron James, has been attributed to a congenital heart defect. A family spokesperson revealed that the incident occurred during a basketball workout at the University of Southern California last month.

Bronny James suffered the cardiac arrest on July 24 and was swiftly taken to Cedars-Sinai Medical Center, where he received immediate medical attention. His subsequent medical journey included consultations with specialists from the Mayo Clinic and Atlantic Health-Morristown Medical Center in New Jersey.

In a statement released on Friday, Stephanie Rosa of the LeBron James Family Foundation confirmed the underlying cause of Bronny's sudden cardiac arrest. She noted, "The identified issue is an anatomically and functionally significant Congenital Heart Defect, which is manageable and treatable. We have high confidence in Bronny's full recovery and his imminent return to the basketball court."

Following the incident at USC's Galen Center, Bronny James was discharged from Cedars-Sinai Medical Center in Los Angeles after three days. Notably, he was seen dining with his family in Santa Monica the following night.

Bronny, also known as LeBron James Jr., committed to the University of Southern California in May. The 6-foot-3 guard gained prominence as one of the nation's top prospects while attending Sierra Canyon School in the nearby Chatsworth area. However, he did not join the Trojans on their recent European tour.

This incident marked the second occurrence of a high-profile USC basketball recruit experiencing cardiac arrest within a year. Vincent Iwuchuwku, a 7-foot-1 center, faced a similar situation during a workout in July of the previous year. Remarkably, Iwuchuwku made a triumphant return to the court six months later and participated in 14 games for the Trojans as a freshman.
