MIAMI -- If USC freshman Bronny James passes a medical examination later this month he will return to practice with the intention of appearing in game action this season, his father, Los Angeles Lakers star LeBron James, said Monday.

Bronny suffered cardiac arrest during a team workout in July and underwent successful surgery to repair what the James family referred to as a likely congenital heart defect.

With the Trojans' season tipping off against Kansas State on Monday night, James offered an update on his 19-year-old son.
