When young LeBron James, son of NBA star LeBron James, was introduced at USC’s HoopLA event to start the new college basketball season, he became the center of attention.
When they were introduced at the ceremony, Bronny and his USC teammates greeted the crowd.
Bronny danced his way onto the court while wearing a red and yellow Trojans jersey and sweatpants.
USC’s Instagram posted a video of Bronny dancing and wrote, “@bronny hit the dougie during his Trojan HoopLA intro.”
A lot of famous people, including Bronny, attended the USC gala on Thursday. At the opening party for Trojan fans and athletes, rapper Saweetie and DJ Zack Bia played music.
In a picture, Bronny was getting pumped up by his new teammates and other USC students. He was wearing jersey number 6.
At 38 years old, LeBron wore number 23 with the Cleveland Cavaliers from 2010 to 2014, when he went back to the Miami Heat.
LeBron put videos of Bronny’s entrance and exit on his Instagram account after the event.
In a May interview with Spectrum, the basketball great talked about the day his son decided to play basketball at USC and said it was “one of the best days of my life.”
At that moment, LeBron said, “I’m so proud of him, and so is our whole family.” It means even more to me that I am the first person in my family to go to college. So it looks like I didn’t go to college.
Going to college is a big deal for him because he’s the first person in his family to do so. “I’m so proud of him, and thinking about his journey makes me cry,” he said. “Overall, I’m just so excited and happy for him.”
Bronny, a former star at Sierra Canyon, is having one of the most anticipated freshman years in college basketball.
Bronny’s progress has been slowed, though, since he had a heart attack in July. He might not be ready for the team’s first game on November 9. His heart defect was found to be “anatomically and functionally significant” after more tests.
ESPN reports that Andy Enfield, the head coach of the USC basketball team, said, “Bronny’s doing very well, but we just can’t say anything medically.” Enfield also said Bronny didn’t show up to the team’s first practice of the season on September 23. We’re so happy that he’s going to school every day and doing so well in school.
In July, Bronny had a heart attack while working out at college. He was hospitalized for two days and then had surgery to fix the problem.
LeBron made a public statement on social media after getting a lot of good feedback from his fans. I want to say thank you to everyone who sent well wishes to my family and friends. We get it, and thanks so much for writing to us about it.
Everything is fine. We’re all here, happy and healthy, and we know your love is with us. When the time is right, I’ll have more to say. For now, please know how much we appreciate all of your support. There was a James Gang.”
