Bronny James, the son of NBA sta LeBron James, has been discharged from the hospital and is resting at home after suffering a cardiac arrest earlier this week.
In a statement from Dr. Merije Chukumerije, Bronny’s consulting cardiologist at Cedars-Sinai hospital, Bronny was said to be stable, adding that they’re hopeful for his “continued progress” and are encouraged by his resilience amid the health scare.
“Thanks to the swift and effective response by the USC athletics’ medical staff, Bronny James was successfully treated for a sudden cardiac arrest. He arrived at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center fully conscious, neurologically intact and stable,” the statement from Cedars-Sinai read. “Mr. James was cared for promptly by highly-trained staff and has been discharged home, where he is resting. Although his workup will be ongoing, we are hopeful for his continued progress and are encouraged by his response, resilience, and his family and community support.”
LeBron issued an update on his son’s condition Thursday, thanking fans and friends for their support.
“I want to thank the countless people sending my family love and prayers. We feel you and I’m so grateful,” the NBA star tweeted. “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.”
On Monday, while practicing with the University of Southern California Trojans basketball team, Bronny suffered cardiac arrest and was rushed to the hospital.
“Medical staff was able to treat Bronny and take him to the hospital. He is now in stable condition and no longer in ICU. We ask for respect and privacy for the James family
