On Tuesday morning, the sports world came to a shuddering halt when word circulated that the USC freshman hooper suffered a cardiac arrest on the court.

Since then, the 18-year-old has received an outpouring of love from the sports world, including from NFL player Damar Hamlin and NBA G league player Shareef O'Neal, who both know the situation all too well.

"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!" LeBron added. "#JamesGang."

Bronny James is no longer in the ICU, in stable condition, and on the road to recovery.
