There has been much speculation that LeBron James will play wherever Bronny James, his eldest son, goes. However, the representative of both, Rich Paul, has taken it upon himself to deny such claims in recent statements collected by the media. ESPN.
“LeBron has no business playing with Bronny,” Paul noted. «If he does it, he does it. But if he doesn’t do it, then nothing happens. There is no agreement that guarantees that if the Lakers select Bronny with the 55th pick, LeBron will have to renew with them… If that were the case, then he would force them to select him with the 17th pick. We don’t need to influence anyone. The Lakers can draft Bronny, and LeBron not play with them. LeBron is not going to go to Phoenix for an agreement for the minimum salary either… We can rule that out right now,” he highlighted.
Recent information confirmed that Bronny has only trained for the Lakers and Suns before the 2024 Draft draw (June 26 and 27). The young USC-trained player is projected for the late first round and/or second round after standing out at the Chicago Draft Combine.
