"Bronny is doing extremely well," James said at Media Day. "He has begun his rehab process to get back on the floor this season with his teammates at USC. With the successful surgery that he had, he's on the up-and-up. It's definitely a whirlwind, a lot of emotions for our family this summer. But the best thing we have is each other."

Bronny James experienced cardiac arrest during a workout at the Galen Center in late July.

Currently attending classes at USC, he is gradually regaining strength and spending time with his teammates.

LeBron also acknowledged the frightening nature of the health scare but emphasized how it has brought his family closer.

"We stuck by each other," James said. "We gave Bronny strength throughout the whole process. We're happy to see where he is today, and we look forward to seeing what his future still has in store for him."
