NBA rumors: 76ers join Lakers Suns as possible Bronny James draft suitor.
Bronny James recently made the decision to keep his name in the 2024 NBA Draft instead of withdrawing and working on his game for another year at the collegiate level. Throughout the entire pre-draft process, Bronny has been the player captivating NBA personnel, as everyone has been looking to gather more information on LeBron James’ son due to his lack of playing time at USC during his freshman season. While various teams have expressed interest in Bronny, Klutch Sports CEO Rich Paul recently made it clear that he is going to do what it takes to put Bronny in the best position possible.
“Bronny’s [draft] range is wide,” Paul told ESPN recently. “He’s a really good prospect who has a lot of room for growth. It only takes one team. I don’t care where that team is — it can be No. 1 or 58 — [but] I do care about the plan, the development. The team’s strategy, the opportunity and the financial commitment. That’s why I’m not doing a two-way deal. Every team understands that.”
A variety of teams have looked to secure a pre-draft workout with Bronny since his performances at the NBA Draft Combine in Chicago. While he has received over 10 workout requests, James and Paul are being selective and declining invitations, according to The Athletic’s Shams Charania. However, Bronny will visit with the Phoenix Suns and the Los Angeles Lakers.
