Bronny James continues to recover from the cardiac arrest he suffered earlier this week, as his father – NBA icon LeBron – recorded him playing the piano on Saturday.
The 18-year-old was seen publicly for the first time since his health scare on Friday night, as he went out for dinner with his family in Los Angeles.
And a day later, Bronny was seen playing piano as a doting LeBron posted a clip of his son to Instagram.
‘GRAND RISING!! God Is Great,’ he wrote.
‘@bronny YOU ARE AMAZING!!! Simple as that! Keep going Young [king]!!! We’re here right with you every step of the way! #JamesGang.’

Bronny was rushed to the hospital on Monday after collapsing at USC’s Galen Center, where he was practicing with the rest of the Trojans basketball squad.
The teenager was admitted to intensive care before later being stabilized. He was eventually released from the hospital altogether on Thursday.
Upon announcing that Bronny had been discharged, Cedars-Sinai Medical Center said Thursday in statement: ‘Thanks to the swift and effective response by the USC athletics’ medical staff, Bronny James was successfully treated for a sudden cardiac arrest.
‘He arrived at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center fully conscious, neurologically intact and stable.
‘Mr. James was cared for promptly by highly-trained staff and has been discharged home, where he is resting.
‘Although his workup will be ongoing, we are hopeful for his continued progress and are encouraged by his response, resilience, and his family and community support.’
LeBron James thanked fans for their wishes of support on Thursday on behalf of his family

LeBron, meanwhile, tweeted out a statement on Thursday thanking fans for the messages of support that his family have been sent.
‘I want to thank the countless people sending my family love and prayers,’ he wrote on Twitter.
”We feel you and I’m so grateful. Everyone doing great. We have our family together, safe and healthy, and we feel your love.
‘Will have more to say when we’re ready but I wanted to tell everyone how much your support has meant to all of us! #JamesGang.’
He was seen visiting Bronny in the hospital on Tuesday wearing a mask and was said to be ‘scared and devastated’ by what had happened.

It’s unclear when – or if – Bronny will be able to return to the court.
His father, LeBron, has previously indicated a desire to play with his eldest son in the NBA, telling ESPN earlier this year ‘I need to be on the floor with my boy, I got to be on the floor with Bronny.
‘Either in the same uniform or a matchup against him… But I would love to do the whole Ken Griffey Sr. and Jr. thing. That would be ideal for sure.’
After teasing retirement when the Lakers were eliminated from the postseason by the Nuggets, LeBron is set to play his 21st season next year.
