James was playing for Sierra Canyon against DeMatha Catholic in a preseason event, the “DMV Showcase,” held at Wise High School. DeMatha was up by a score of 52-51 with less than two minutes remaining in the contest. A fight allegedly broke out in the stands, and someone yelled out that someone had a gun, which caused panic among people in the gym. Video footage showing the two teams rushing out of the gym to avoid whatever chaos was going to take place went viral. Police officials told TMZ Sports that although there was a rush from the stands and a little chaos, they did a “thorough search” and “did not locate a firearm.” A police spokesperson also said, “There were no injuries.” Although no weapons were found and no one was injured, the team did not come out to complete the rest of the game “out of an abundance of caution,” said DeMatha Head Coach Mike G. Jones III. Bronny posted something on his social media page after the game, saying, “high schoolers can’t even hoop in peace now a days.”
