Bronny James has been discharged from hospital after suffering cardiac arrest. Also: Ben Simmons fitness update. All news in the update.
James released from the hospital
Bronny James has been discharged from the hospital after suffering a cardiac arrest. The hospital’s statement said the 18-year-old was on his way home to rest. LeBron James also addressed the public: “Everyone is fine. We have our family together, safe and sound, and we feel your love.” He will elaborate further in due course, but thanked the many people who have sent “love and prayers” to his family.
Bronny collapsed during a training session with his new team, the USC Trojans, on Monday and was immediately taken to the hospital. In the coming week, his team will embark on a preparatory trip to Croatia and Greece.
Simmons fit again
Ben Simmons is fit again after a long injury break. That’s what his agent Bernie Lee said. “The expectation is that he can start the regular season without any restrictions.” Simmons is as healthy as he has been since his senior year in Philadelphia. According to his agent, Simmons will act as a point guard and ball distributor in Brooklyn in the new season, thus solving the Nets’ problem in the playmaker position
The Australian only played 42 games last season due to a persistent back injury. The 27-year-old had 6.9 points, 6.3 rebounds and 6.1 assists.
LeBron’s number is retired
LeBron James’ number will be retired by the Lakers after his retirement. This was announced by owner Jeanie Buss in an interview with Mark Medina. There is absolutely no doubt that James’ jersey will be hanging from the ceiling of the Lakers arena once LeBron is inducted into the Hall of Fame.
However, it is still unclear which number will no longer be assigned by the Lakers in the future. So far, the 38-year-old has played with shirt number 23 and number 6. Out of respect for the late Bill Russell, James will switch back to number 23 for the new season. When asked whether both numbers would be withdrawn like Kobe Bryant, Buss did not lie down states: “This is a discussion for another time.”
