Lakers star LeBron James thanked fans for the outpouring support regarding his eldest son, Bronny James, after the USC freshman was rushed to the hospital following a cardiac arrest in practice on Monday.
“I want to thank the countless people sending my family love and prayers. We feel you and I’m so grateful. Everyone doing great. We have our family together, safe and healthy, and we feel your love. Will have more to say when we’re ready but I wanted to tell everyone how much your support has meant to all of us! #JamesGang👑,” James tweeted.
The incident took place shortly before 9:30 a.m. PT Monday at USC’s basketball facility in Los Angeles, according to the Los Angeles Times. At the time, Bronny lost consciousness during the cardiac episode. Initially, USC’s medical staff gave Bronny treatment before he was placed in an ambulance and transported to Cedar-Sinai Medical Center at “Code 3, lights and sirens,” signaling an emergency response by medical personnel.
