Lakers star LeBron James spoke to reporters on Monday night following the loss to the Heat, and he provided an update on his son Bronny’s progress in his recovery from heart surgery after he went into cardiac arrest in July.
James said that Bronny will receive a medical check up at the end of November. If all goes well and he’s cleared to play, the plan is to return to practice with USC and eventually participate in games as early as this season.
“We have a big moment at the end of this month to see if we can continue to go forward. If he’s cleared, we’ll be not too long away from him being back on the floor and back with his teammates and practicing, with the notion of being back on the floor and playing in game situations,” said James, via Dan Woike of the Los Angeles Times.
