Bronny James' Future in Basketball Uncertain After Congenital Heart Diagnosis

Bronny James, the son of NBA star LeBron James, has been diagnosed with a congenital heart defect, but the family is confident in his full recovery and return to basketball in the near future. The 18-year-old freshman at the University of Southern California suffered sudden cardiac arrest in July but has since stabilized. Bronny received evaluations at Cedars-Sinai, the Mayo Clinic, and Atlantic Health/Morristown Medical Center. Congenital Heart Defects are common birth defects that affect the heart or blood vessels near the heart. The family has requested privacy during this time.
