As the 2024 NBA Draft approaches, the future of USC basketball guard Bronny James remains uncertain.
Despite being ranked 90th on the latest top 100 NBA Draft prospects list, his draft position is far from guaranteed. The son of Lakers superstar LeBron James, Bronny James was selected to participate in the 2024 NBA Draft Combine, where he’ll face off against the best competition in the sport.
Bronny James’ freshman season with USC basketball was statistically lean, averaging 4.8 points, 2.8 rebounds, and 2.1 assists per game on 36.6% shooting. However, he’s still considered a top prospect due to his 6-foot-4 frame, 6-foot-8 wingspan, and four-star recruit status.
Rumors have circulated that the Lakers may be interested in drafting Bronny James late in the draft to pair him with his father LeBron James. When asked about the rumors, Bronny James replied, “I don’t know yet,” with a smirk, adding to the mystery of his potential NBA Draft future.
The 2024 NBA Draft Combine, taking place from May 12-19 in Chicago, will be a crucial opportunity for Bronny James to showcase his skills and prove himself against top competition. Will he get drafted by an NBA team? Only time will tell.
