Several teams are trying to determine if they have what it takes to persuade LeBron James to play for them now that it is known that Bronny James will be filing for the 2024 NBA Draft.
LeBron has been quite clear about his goals, thus Bronny’s announcement is turning out to be one of the most significant in recent memory. His only desire is to play with his oldest son before quitting the game. LeBron James will be a member of the squad that succeeds in doing this indefinitely.
Despite the fact that Bronny’s recent performance at USC makes it unlikely that any team would select him in the first round, all of these teams are considering adding LeBron James to their package.
Philadelphia 76ers look set to land Bronny James and LeBron James
LeBron James is expected to follow suit from the team that earlier in the week indicated interest in attempting to draft Bronny James. They want to go for Bronny in the Draft in an attempt to get LeBron James from the Los Angeles Lakers.
Sam Vecenie of The Athletic is certain that the Philadelphia 76ers are the team that will attempt to snatch Bronny James from the Lakers without warning. Because of their infrastructure, he believes the Sixers are among the most promising choices. LeBron would be a pleasant surprise given they already have Joel Embiid and Tyrese Maxey as their in-house talents.

Because choosing to relocate to a new city again has a competitive component, even though LeBron James wants to play alongside his son. The team that selects Bronny in the draft must also offer LeBron James a realistic strategy to contend for titles.
The team has little chance of getting father and son if this doesn’t occur. The Sixers are the ones who currently anticipate this happening, although Bronny may have further alternatives from other teams in the Draft.
