USC Trojans guard Bronny James (6) is introduced during Trojan HoopLA, a college basketball kickoff event featuring the USC Trojans, on October 19, 2023 at Galen Center in Los Angeles, CA.

 

Bronny James is ready for basketball season.

All eyes were on the 19-year-old son of NBA legend LeBron James as he enjoyed his introduction at USC’s annual HoopLA event, which kicks off the start of a new college basketball season.

Bronny and his USC teammates greeted fans at the event as each player got their official introduction.

During his entrance on the floor, Bronny danced as he came out on the court in his red and yellow Trojans jersey and sweatpants.

“@bronny hit the dougie during his Trojan HoopLA intro,” USC’s Instagram account wrote in the caption of a video showing Bronny’s dance moves.

Thursday’s USC event included major star power in addition to Bronny. Rapper Saweetie and DJ Zack Bia performed during the kickoff party for Trojan fans and athletes.

Bronny was pictured in his No. 6 jersey as his new teammates and fellow USC students hyped him up.

LeBron, 38, briefly wore the same jersey number when he played for the Miami Heat in 2010, and later changed back to No. 23 when he returned to the Cleveland Cavaliers in 2014.

After the event, LeBron shared clips of Bronny’s introduction and walkout on his Instagram story.

The Lakers star previously said the day his son committed to play basketball for USC was “one of the best days of my life,” during an interview with Spectrum in May.

“I’m super proud of him, our family is proud of him,” LeBron said at the time. “For me personally, it’s even more special to me because it’s the first time someone out of my family to go to college. Obviously, I didn’t go to college.”

“It’s just a proud moment to see my son go to college, and he’s the first one to go college in my family. Super duper proud, super emotional, but just super duper excited and happy for his journey,” he concluded.
