Bronny James was teachin’ fans how to Dougie at a USC hoops event Thursday night … dancing his tail off during player introductions — but he sat out all of the night’s competitions, an indication he’s still not quite 100 percent after suffering cardiac arrest.
LeBron‘s oldest son received a super warm welcome at the annual Trojan HoopLA shindig at the Galen Center in downtown Los Angeles … and he sure seemed to love it all, gyrating to Cali Swag District‘s “Teach Me How To Dougie” as people in the stands roared.
However, that was about all the physical activity he did during the evening … electing not to participate in the skills competition, dunk contest and the 3-point contest.
Of course, it’s not unexpected at all … Bronny required surgery just a few weeks ago after he had the issue with his heart back in July — and everyone involved has been making sure he’s been brought along slowly ever since.
LeBron James said Bronny is “doing extremely well” and plans to dedicate his 21st NBA season to him. pic.twitter.com/XgZLruxEuV

It’s unclear when he’ll be able to officially start putting basketballs in hoops for the Trojans this year … a timetable has not been given — but LeBron said just days ago the goal is for his son to make an impact at USC soon.

Meanwhile, there were plenty more highlights from the Trojans event Thursday … including when freshman forward Brandon Gardner threw down a massive slam over star USC quarterback Caleb Williams during the dunk contest.
USC men’s basketball will officially kick off its season against Kansas State on Nov. 6 … here’s to hoping we see Bronny dancin’ — and playing again — then.
