A comprehensive evaluation determined that the “probable cause” of Bronny James’ cardiac arrest last month was an “anatomically and functionally significant congenital heart defect,” according to a statement from a James Family spokesperson obtained by ESPN’s Jeff Borzello.
The condition “can and will be treated,” per the family spokesperson.
Bronny, the son of Los Angeles Lakers superstar LeBron James, is expected to make a full recovery and return to basketball in the “very near future.”
