Bronny James’ agent, Wealthy Paul, seems to have little or no curiosity in his consumer heading to any group aside from the Lakers or Suns.
Talking on a latest episode of NBA At present, ESPN’s Jonathan Givony stated different groups had been unable to organise a exercise with James.
“NBA groups that I speak to say they can not get Bronny James into their constructing, groups which can be drafting within the late 20s and the 30s,” Givony stated. “The Phoenix Suns have a second exercise scheduled with Bronny later this week however aside from that we now have not seen any NBA group have the ability to work him out.
“The sense amongst groups is that his agent, Wealthy Paul, doesn’t need him on a two-way contract. The vary that he’s going to be picked, that 40 to 58 vary, that’s the place two-way contracts are handed out. So it’s trying proper now that Bronny James goes to slip there (to the Lakers) at 55. I don’t assume any NBA group desires to choose him and cope with the repercussions of that. In order that’s the best way it’s trending as of at present.”
Regardless of the seemingly doubtless state of affairs of James going to the Lakers, he has beforehand made it clear that enjoying along with his father isn’t a dream of his.
“No, by no means,” he stated on the NBA Draft mix. “My dream has all the time simply been to place my identify out, make a reputation for myself, and get to the NBA, which is everybody’s finish objective that’s right here. I by no means considered simply enjoying with my dad, however in fact he’s introduced it up a few occasions. However yeah, I don’t give it some thought a lot.”
James gained’t have to attend lengthy to search out out the place he’s heading, with the NBA Draft scheduled for June 26-27.
