As his USC classmates and new colleagues jubilated over Bronny, he was photographed donning his No. 6 jersey.

When he returned to the Cleveland Cavaliers in 2014, LeBron, 38, reverted to his previous jersey number, No. 23, which he had worn momentarily while playing for the Miami Heat in 2010.

Followed the occasion, LeBron uploaded Instagram story snippets depicting Bronny’s introduction and exit.

The collegiate basketball debut of Bronny, a former Sierra Canyon star, is among the most anticipated of the year.While he recovers from his cardiac arrest in July, Bronny’s availability for the team’s inaugural game on November 9 remains uncertain. A later diagnosis of “a congenital heart defect that is both anatomically and functionally significant” was made for him.image

Andy Enfield, head basketball coach at USC, confirmed to ESPN on September 23 that Bronny was absent from the team’s inaugural practice of the year. He further stated, “Bronny is in excellent health, but we are unable to provide any medical updates at this time.” We are ecstatic for him because he is academically succeeding and attending class regularly.
