Just days ago, Bronny James was reportedly only open to having NBA Draft workouts with the Los Angeles Lakers and Phoenix Suns. Turns out, the younger James is now making room for more teams before the draft itself later this month.
In recent years, Los Angeles Lakers star LeBron James declared that he intended to play alongside his son, Bronny, for his final year in the NBA. Since then, the public’s attention has been captivated by the younger James as he showcased his basketball skills at the high school level.

However, before Bronny could make his highly anticipated college debut, he experienced a cardiac arrest due to a congenital heart disease. Fortunately, the young star underwent a successful recovery, leading to an opportunity to play for the USC Trojans during the 2023-24 NCAA season. Despite limited playing time, he did not meet the lofty expectations set upon him. Bronny’s averages for that season stood at 4.8 points, 2.8 rebounds, and 2.1 assists per game.
Nevertheless, Bronny managed to reshape his narrative during the recent Draft Combine. He showcased impressive skills and delivered a noteworthy performance, capturing the attention of multiple NBA franchises. Consequently, teams like the Los Angeles Lakers and Phoenix Suns are reportedly considering selecting him in the upcoming 2024 NBA Draft.

There were reports a couple of days ago that Bronny would only consider working out with the Suns and Lakers. But according to Marc Stein of the Stein Line, the younger James is now open to other teams.
“Bronny James’s agent Rich Paul told The Stein Line that there are “a few more” invites under consideration they are still evaluating for potential workouts,” Stein said.
Most mock drafts place Bronny late in the second round. Things can still change if an NBA team gets him early with the hope of also having the elder James play for them.

It remains to be seen where Bronny will actually land in the NBA. The 2024 Draft is scheduled on June 26 and 27 with the first and second rounds happening on each night, respectively.
