Bronny James, the 18-year-old son of NBA star LeBron James, suffered a cardiac arrest on Monday while practicing with his University of Southern California basketball team in Los Angeles.
Early details of the medical emergency yielded promising news, according to Dr. Gian Corrado, head team physician for Northeastern athletics. On Tuesday, James’ parents revealed that their son had been moved out of the intensive care unit and was in stable condition.
His apparent quick recovery and transfer out of the ICU is “the No. 1 indicator” of a successful recovery, said Corrado. It also indicates that James, a 6-foot-3-inch guard, received quick attention from medical staff at the scene.
