LeBron James arrives at hospital after Bronny's cardiac arrest
NBA superstar LeBron James had the concerned look that any parent would have when he arrived at Cedar Sinai Hospital after his son Bronny suffered cardiac arrest while practicing at USC on Monday.
LeBron James was photographed for the first time since the scary incident involving his son.
The images, which were captured Tuesday outside the West Hollywood hospital, showed the Lakes star arriving in a black Cadilac SUV while wearing a white shirt, shorts and a baseball cap.
He was also seen in the photos wearing a medical mask.
The past 48 hours have likely been a trying time for the James family since their eldest son suffered the cardiac event on Monday at 9:26 a.m., when a 911 call was made from the Galen Center where USC practices.
Bronny had committed to play for the Trojans in May.

He was unconscious before he was rushed to the hospital by ambulance, with the worst hopefully over.
“[Monday] while practicing Bronny James suffered a cardiac arrest,” the James family said in a statement. “Medical staff was able to treat Bronny and take him to the hospital. He is now in stable condition and no longer in ICU. We ask for respect and privacy for the James family and we will update media when there is more information.”
The family also thanked the medical and athletic staff at USC for their actions.

“LeBron and Savannah wish to publicly send their deepest thanks and appreciation to the USC medical and athletic staff for their incredible work and dedication to the safety of their athletes,” the statement said.
