Bronny James, the teenage son of NBA great LeBron James, is expected to return to basketball "in the very near future" after he suffered a cardiac arrest last month, ESPN reported on Friday, citing a statement from a family spokesperson.
The 18-year-old went into cardiac arrest on July 24 while training with the University of Southern California basketball team. He was hospitalized and placed in intensive care, and discharged three days later.Follow-up evaluations have revealed that the probable cause of James' cardiac arrest was a congenital heart defect, according to the statement, ESPN reported.
"It is an anatomically and functionally significant congenital heart defeat which can and will be treated," the spokesperson said in the statement. "We are very confident in Bronny's full recovery and return to basketball in the very near future." Bronny James was the second USC player to go into cardiac arrest in the last year. Vince Iwuchukwu collapsed during practice last July after suffering heart failure, and returned to the court six months later.

DeSantis invested in woke & now it's a 'crappy stock': James CarvilleThere were a lot of fireworks at the first 2024 Republican presidential debate. But there was also a very noticeable absence. Former President Donald Trump opted to skip the debate and do an interview with former Fox News host Tucker Carlson instead. Businessman Vivek Ramaswamy gathered the most headlines post-debate, someone Democratic political strategist James Carville, Host of 'Politics War Room with James Carville & Al Hunt,' dubbed the 'Herman Cain, Michele Bachmann of this cycle.' Florida Governor Ron DeSantis didn't gain as much attention, despite polling as second behind Trump. Carville says the problem is DeSantis went all-in on woke, but the topic didn't even come up until late in the debate. 'Every other word out of his mouth was woke this, and woke corporations... and now the whole thing has kind of petered out. So he's stuck with a long position in an underperforming asset,' Carville says, using terminology Yahoo Finance's audience may be familiar with.
