“Family over everything,” says LeBron James.

LeBron James knows where his priorities lie.

While his professional basketball career has dominated most of his life, it does not take precedence over his family and kids. That’s why he revealed that when the moment comes for his son Bronny’s college debut at USC, he would miss a Los Angeles Lakers game if there’s a scheduling conflict between the two events.

Just 4 months after Bronnny collapsed due to a heart attack during a USC football practice, the 19-year-old high school star has been cleared for basketball activity after being cleared for non-contact play a few weeks earlier, according to ESPN’s Jeff Borzello

In August, James’ family announced that Bronny had a congenital heart defect that is treatable.

Now Bronny is set to resume practice next week and return to games shortly after.

One of the best players in the 2023 recruiting class, James committed to USC following a standout career at Sierra Canyon School in Southern California. He was part of a highly-rated recruiting class for the Trojans, that included Isaiah Collier—the No. 1 overall player in the recruiting class, according to 247 sports composite.

USC is 5-2 so far this season.
