LeBron James has once again indicated that he is looking to play with his son when he is drafted into the NBA after a mock projected him to be picked in the first round to the Atlanta Hawks.
Bronny James, 18, had previously been seen as an early second-round or late first-round draft prospect but his recent performances have seen him climb the rankings ahead of his move up to college to play for USC. Bronny performed at a strong level in the McDonald's High-School All-Star game in March - a game featuring the best players in their final year before going to college or playing professionally in the G-League or overseas.
On Tuesday evening, ESPN released their first mock draft for the 2024 class, which featured James Jr going in the first, 17th overall to the Hawks. And in his reaction to seeing the projection, LeBron James has indicated that he'll be looking to join Bronny's team having made no secret of the fact he wants to play with his eldest son in the latter years of his career.
