Bronny James' Block Is Going Viral In USC-Long Beach State Game
On Sunday afternoon, the USC Trojans are hosting the Long Beach State 49ers in Los Angeles, California.
During the game, Bronny James made his college debut, and in the first quarter, he had a massive highlight that went viral on social media.
The 49ers were on a fast break, and James had a huge block that gave the Trojans possession of the ball.
Coming out of high school, James was ranked by ESPN as the 20th-best player in the country.
James had offers from some of the best college basketball programs, such as Kentucky, Duke and Ohio State.
He played high school basketball in Los Angeles, and his father (LeBron James) is in his sixth season playing for the Los Angeles Lakers, so it's no surprise that James chose to play for USC.
James led the Lakers to the In-Season Tournament Championship on Saturday in Las Vegas (they beat the Indiana Pacers by a score of 123-109).
In 35 minutes of playing time, he had 24 points, 11 rebounds, four assists and two steals while shooting 10/21 from the field.
That said, James was able to be in attendance for Sunday's game between the Trojans and 49ers (at the Galen Center) to watch his son's first college basketball game.
Following Sunday's game, the Trojans will visit the Auburn Tigers in Alabama on December 17.
As for the Lakers, they will play their next game on Tuesday evening in Texas when they face off against Luka Doncic and the Dallas Mavericks.
