If you’re a basketball fan, then you’ve probably heard of Bronny James. Son of NBA legend LeBron James, Bronny has been making waves in the basketball world with his skills on the court. And now, it seems that several NBA teams have taken notice.
Reports have surfaced recently that five teams are interested in drafting Bronny James once he becomes eligible for the NBA draft. While he may still be a few years away from declaring for the draft, the interest from these teams is certainly promising for the young player.
So, which teams are reportedly interested in drafting Bronny James? According to Rich Paul, the teams include the Minnesota Timberwolves, Dallas Mavericks, and Toronto Raptors.
“There are other teams that love Bronny. For example, Minnesota, Dallas, Toronto. If it’s not the Lakers, it will be someone else. Minnesota would love to get Bronny in, but I don’t know who their owner is going to be. [Mavs GM] Nico Harrison is like an uncle to Bronny. If the Lakers don’t take him at 55, Dallas would take him at 58 and give him a guaranteed deal. Masai [Ujiri, Raptors president,] loves him. They could take him without even seeing him at 31. Workouts aren’t everything for these teams.”
James, the son of Los Angeles Lakers star LeBron James, has worked his way up into the NBA draft conversation in the second round. Of note, the latest mock draft from Jonathan Wasserman for Bleacher Report has James going 55th overall to L.A.
It’s clear that Bronny James has a bright future ahead of him in the basketball world. With the support of his famous father and the interest of several NBA teams, there’s no telling how far he can go in the sport. Keep an eye on this rising star – he’s definitely one to watch in the coming years.
