Bronny James"If the Lakers have an opportunity to draft Bronny James, they will do so, whether that's with the 55th pick or if they make another deal around the draft or another pick, I think they will try. I do not think it's going to be their top priority," Windhorst said.
Windhorst has made it clear that the acquisition of Bronny, whether by the Lakers or not, does not guarantee LeBron's presence in free agency. The idea of LeBron and his son playing together, while intriguing, is not the top priority, as previously speculated. One thing is certain: Bronny will remain in the 2024 NBA Draft. At the moment, the Lakers hold their No. 17 overall pick and a second-round pick in the upcoming draft. The Lakers are aggressively trying to package that No. 17 pick in a trade for an All-Star level player, so if they decide to draft Bronny, they will likely use their second-round pick.
The New Orleans Pelicans can choose to take the No. 17 pick, but all signs show they will do so in next year's draft. The 19-year-old James is coming off a mediocre season at USC, averaging 4.8 points, 2.8 rebounds, and 2.1 assists. He did suffer a sudden cardiac arrest last summer, which delayed his USC debut and may have shaken his game off. Coming into his freshman season, Bronny was the No.
