Bronny James made his long-awaited USC freshman debut tonight against Long Beach State. LeBron James, who said several times before his debut that he would miss a Lakers game to watch his son lace up for the first time at the collegiate level, luckily didn’t have to miss a single game to watch the spectacle. With all the hype surrounding Bronny, it’s easy to forget that the game was actually won by Long Beach State, led by senior Marcus Tsohonis.
The win for Long Beach State is USC’s first since 1987 and was led by Tsohonis’ 28 points. He shot 7-14 from the field, 3-6 from beyond the arc and an impressive 11-13 from the charity stripe.
He went on to dish out 3 assists while also en route to the OT win.
Many of those who watched this game simply for James would probably not be well informed about who exactly Tsohonis is. The man who tied the game at 74 with 3.9 seconds remaining has been a prolific scorer at the collegiate level for some time now.
The 6-foot-3 point guard has done everything from setting the Long Beach State record for most points in a game (46 points in triple overtime against UC San Diego) to now raising his scoring average to 17.2 points per game after how he became a leader in the league. his squad. He seems to like to chase a team when it’s on a roll, as his season high came in a 16-point loss to Michigan that resulted in him giving up 35 points.
Bronny James thanks her doctors for all the work they’ve done
Bronny James made his USC debut after missing several games after suffering a cardiac arrest during practice on July 24. He was hospitalized for 3 days in Los Angeles and the incident was described as a “congenital heart defect”.
Just a few days ago, USC’s head coach said Bronny had been participating in full-contact practice, and his debut tonight was quite surprising given the short amount of time between full-contact practice and the actual game. However, he would have had a pretty decent game for someone who came back from where he came back from.
Bronny James had 4 points, 2 steals, assists and 1 block, reminiscent of his father LeBron James. After the game, he thanked the medical workers who helped him reach this point.
