Bronny James can draw support from Shaq’s son and father LeBron James
Bronny will have a close friend to lean on in this situation if he needs one, as Shaquille O’Neal’s son, Shareef O’Neal, dealt with a heart issue of his own back in 2018 when he was a teenage basketball star. Shareef and Bronny are good pals and were recently spotted out together in Hollywood earlier this month, trying to party with one another at Saweetie’s birthday bash.
Bronny was also seen looking fine at the ESPY Awards two weeks ago with his family, where LeBron won the Best NBA Player award for the fifth time in his career.
