LeBron's ex-teammate Ronny Turiaf ready to advise Bronny on return from heart issue

If and when Bronny James needs advice on how to recover from a frightening heart condition... Ronny Turiaf, one of LeBron's former basketball buddies, tells TMZ Sports he'll be there no questions asked for the teenager.
Turiaf, of course, underwent open-heart surgery in 2005... after doctors discovered he had an enlarged aortic root. The procedure was terrifying - it took hours...and the former NBA player didn't know if he'd ever be able to hoop again, even if he did.
But, he went on to fully recover...playing 10 years in the NBA, including a championship season with LBJ in Miami in 2011-12.
