The earnings that Bronny James is racking have been partly due to his father's popularity. However, it cannot be denied that the 19-year-old has talent, which is why he was a consensus four-star recruit and part of the McDonald's All-American as a senior in high school in 2023, per USA Today.
He is currently studying at the University of South Carolina and is a member of the Trojans basketball team. Unfortunately, his basketball career has been put on hold after suffering a cardiac arrest during a USC practice last July 24, 2023, per Bleacher Report.
