What do the leaders of the Suns have in mind? While they only have the 22nd pick in the Draft, they decided to test again Bronny James. For the moment, LeBron James' son has only made two tries, with the Suns and the Lakers. According to ESPNhis agent, Rich Paul, rejects other teams who would like to see him for a “workout”.
On the other hand, he therefore accepted that the Suns saw him a second time. This is more than surprising since the franchise only has the 22nd pick in this Draft! Can Phoenix afford to draft an average college player at such a high spot? With Mat Ishbia, we can't exclude anything… Or the Suns are considering exchanging this 22nd pick for two second rounds of the Draft, thus stealing Bronny from other interested teams…
What if the Suns attracted LeBron James…
On the side of Bill Simmons, we bring up another idea: what if the Suns selected Bronny to attract his father, LeBron? The four-time MVP has the opportunity to test the market, giving up on a $51 million salary. A priori, the objective is to get a new two-year contract (1+1) from the Lakers, but perhaps he has in mind joining the Suns to evolve with Kevin Durant.
Nothing stops him. Except that the Suns' finances are in the dark red, and the franchise can only offer LeBron James the minimum salary. This should cool down this track. But, we repeat, with Mat Ishbia as boss, but also James Jones as president, a former loyal teammate of LeBron, we must remain cautious.
