So, on Tuesday night there were reports on the Bronny James news front that he had entered the transfer portal to leave USC. At the time of this writing, there is nothing confirmed from James or USC about the transfer. The original X report (Tweet) has since been deleted. Not that if he remains in college, it doesn’t make sense. But we’re in that stage of things where he’s likely taking stock of his options and choosing the best path for his future growth and development. Whether that be as a professional in the NBA, at USC, or another college.
Bronny James News – If He Transfers, Where to Next?
Well, if he doesn’t just get ready for the 2024 NBA Draft, that’s the big question for fans of Bronny and his father. If he chooses to leave home, Ohio State was a big player in his initial recruitment before signing with USC. Then, there is his friend, Meechie Johnson whose dad and Bronny’s are friends that could end up with them at OSU. Dru Joyce III being at Duquesne now is another after their history in high school. USC Head coach, Andy Enfield left to take over the job at SMU after 11 seasons too.
How is Bronny James’s Health?
So, it wasn’t even a year ago when all of the Bronny James news was about his having cardiac arrest in early July during USC offseason workouts. He would miss the first eight games of the 2023-24 USC regular season before being cleared by doctors. All indications are that he’s full up. Still, to go from that to playing D-I basketball and getting ready for the next level is crazy good for him. Lots of Hard work involved, etc.
What were Bronny James’ College Stats?
So, for his freshman year at USC, Bronny James played in 25 games. He averaged 4.8 ppg, 2.1 assists per game, and 2.8 rebounds per game. By the time he was cleared to play in the 2023-24 regular season, USC was eight games into the regular season schedule. Not too bad for a kid who missed the rest of summer workouts and jumped right into things. The question for everyone is does he project high-end enough to go pro now or would he benefit from another year of college basketball? Tough decisions upcoming.
