USC basketball coach Andy Enfield said Thursday that Bronny James is expected to make his college debut on Sunday when the Trojans take on Long Beach State, according to Ryan Kartje of the Los Angeles Times.
James, the eldest son of NBA superstar LeBron James, has yet to appear in a game for USC this season after suffering cardiac arrest during a team practice in July. After undergoing testing it was determined that Bronny has a congenital heart defect, but the family maintained that he’d be back on the court before long.
Enfield said that a final determination of Bronny’s status will come after practice on Friday, when the freshman will undergo an evaluation from USC’s medical staff.
