On Wednesday and Thursday, rounds one and two of the 2024 NBA Draft will take place at the Barclays Center in Brooklyn. The 2024 draft class is historically worse compared to years past. That bodes well for one player who’s in the draft pool. LeBron James oldest son, Bronny.
After one season at USC, the 19-year-old decided he wanted to take his talents to the next level. Bronny James is not one of the top prospects in this draft and scouts have questioned where he will be drafted. Sportsbooks have the Los Angeles Lakers as the betting favorites to draft James.
