LeBron James to Phoenix Suns? Speculation swirls after Bronny James workout report
The Phoenix Suns will work out USC guard Bronny James, ahead of the 2024 NBA Draft, according to a report from The Athletic's Shams Charania.
Charania posted on X Friday morning: "The Phoenix Suns will conduct a workout with Bronny James ahead of the June NBA Draft, sources say. Phoenix has the 22nd pick and he is among several players in consideration. Bronny has over 10 workout invites but is expected to only visit a few teams, including Lakers and Suns."
James, the son of Los Angeles Lakers star LeBron James, has seen his stock rise after the 2024 NBA Combine and Phoenix has been included in NBA draft odds and NBA draft speculation for the guard.
That speculation will likely now only increase after Charania's report.
James averaged 4.8 points per game, 2.8 rebounds per game and 2.1 assists per game during his freshman season for the Trojans. It was his lone season at USC.
The 2024 NBA Draft is scheduled for June 26 and June 27, with one round each night.
