Los Angeles, California - USC Trojan hooper Bronny James has continued to make huge progress since suffering his tragic health scare.

Bronny James hit the court in style, warming up alongside his No. 16 USC teammates for the first time this season.

This exciting development comes after the young player faced cardiac arrest during a team workout in July. His proud dad LeBron James celebrated this milestone as a positive step towards Bronny's comeback.

"Today's game was the first game he got an opportunity to warm up with his team," Los Angeles Lakers star LeBron James told reporters on Sunday following the Lakers win over the Houston Rockets. "So, he's almost there... He's almost there."

Despite not having made his collegiate debut yet, Bronny James is making strides on the road to recovery.

Following the cardiac arrest incident, he underwent successful surgery to address what his family described as a probable congenital heart defect.

"It was great. He went through warm-ups with the team. He's a big part of our program and our team. He's a terrific teammate," USC head coach Andy Enfield said.

"We look forward to hopefully one day getting him back on the court, but when that day is, that's not my decision. We're going to be patient and go through the process."

Before Sunday's game, Bronny James had engaged in individual preparation but hadn't yet joined his teammates on the court for warm-ups.

LeBron James revealed earlier this month that, pending a successful medical examination later in the month, Bronny planned to resume practice with the goal of participating in game action this season.

"It's awesome having him back and on the team with us and participating with us," USC guard Kobe Johnson said after the Trojans 81-70 victory over Brown.

"We want him back as soon as possible, but we want him to be as healthy as possible when he comes back. Every day we pray that he keeps getting better and hopefully sometime this year he's able to get on the floor with us."

USC hoops and Bronny James will take to the court next on Thursday at 5:30 PM ET at home.
