According to TMZ Sports, a 911 call was made around 9.26am at the USC Gallin Center in

The player went into cardiac arrest on the field earlier this year during an NFL game.

Back in 2022, Bronny and Bryce appeared with their father on the cover of Sports Illustrated
01:53
where Bronny opened up about his path to play basketball like his father.
01:56
Bronny stated, "I feel like the path was already chosen.
01:59
But my dad is cool enough to let me take whatever path I want if I wanted to not pursue basketball.
02:04
But I think basketball is going to be my thing for sure."
02:07
The young star also went on to admit, "I'll see what happens.
02:10
I'm going to be playing basketball.
02:12
If I go down that path, then it is what it is.
02:14
If the NBA doesn't pan out, I'm cool."
