Anatomically and functionally significant congenital heart defect that can and will be treated was found to be the “probable cause” of the 18-year-old’s “sudden cardiac arrest” following medical evaluations by specialists from Cedars-Sinai Medical Center, the Mayo Clinic, and the Morristown Medical Center, a family spokesperson said in a statement.

In a statement released on Friday, a representative for the James family stated that a “anatomically and functionally significant congenital heart defect” was the likely cause of the University of Southern California player’s abrupt collapse at the Galen Center, the indoor arena and athletic facility where USC’s basketball team practices.
Following the terrifying event in July, LeBron released a message about his kid, thanking everyone for their support as he recovered.

“I want to thank the countless people sending my family love and prayers,” James wrote. “We feel you and I’m so grateful. 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!”
LeBron James recorded his kid playing the piano at their Los Angeles home for a brief period of time on July 29 before smiling and rising up.
Bronny James wore masks because he was told to. Then he got vaccinated. Then he had a heart attack, at the age of 18.
It’s sad our youth trusts the adults now days.
He didn’t know better.

Although it is uncommon among young athletes, cardiac arrest, which the American Heart Association describes as when the “heart malfunctions and stops beating unexpectedly,” is not unheard of. In fact, cardiac arrest, which is different from a heart attack, is the leading cause of death for young athletes in the U.S., according to the Mayo Clinic.
