A few months back, LeBron James and Bronny shared a major update on the latter’s next destination, the University of Southern California. Since then, fans have been eager to watch the future NBA prospect shine in college basketball. While there are a few more months for it, a post on Bronny from the University has made both his father and Shaquille O’Neal’s family very proud of him.

Averaging 24 points, 10 rebounds and 3 assists in 29 games, Judea ‘Juju’ Watkins is a name that is echoing around the league already. Watkins’ sheer commitment and dedication this season even led 38-year-old LeBron James to give her the credits she deserves. Now alongside Bronny James, a major update on the two is going viral on social media. 

The University of Southern California shared a picture of Bronny James and Judea Watkins in a shining USC jersey. The USC’s basketball team added, “Two of SoCal’s biggest stars will stay home and play for the Trojans next season!”

How did LeBron James appreciate Juju Watkins’ sensational performance amid an injury? 

The 17-year-old twisted her ankle in a game against the Sidwell Friends high school back in January. Sadly, that was the same ankle she was sustaining soreness from. However, that did not stop the youngster from dropping 29 points, 14 rebounds, 5 assists, and most importantly, a win.

Los Angeles Lakers superstar LeBron James had to give Watkins her flowers. The 4-time MVP shared a video of the 17-year-old’s gameplay in his story. That’s something Watkins is never going to forget!
