With just four teams still in contention for an NBA championship, most of the league is focused on what’s to come next.
The 2024 NBA Draft is just around the corner, and while this class is reportedly one of the weakest and least impressive in years, there could be plenty of hidden gems and value after the lottery.
Also, Bronny James’ NBA future is perhaps the biggest storyline of the draft, and following an impressive performance at the combine, he might’ve climbed his way into the first round.
With that in mind, NBA insider Shams Charania reports that the Phoenix Suns will host him for a workout.
The Phoenix Suns will conduct a workout with Bronny James ahead of the June NBA Draft, sources say. Phoenix has the 22nd pick and he is among several players in consideration.

Apparently, Bronny could be in play by the time they’re on the clock with the No. 22 selection.
Charania adds that Bronny has at least ten invites to private workouts, but he’s not going to workout for all teams.
He named the Suns and Los Angeles Lakers as two of the teams he will workout for.
Bronny isn’t obviously as highly-touted as his father, but he’s believed to be an NBA-ready defender with a high basketball IQ.
He recently compared his game to the likes of Davion Mitchell, Jrue Holiday, or Derrick White, and that kind of player is always valuable and welcome on an NBA roster.
Whether he’s going to be a first or a second-round pick, or whether his destination will have any effect on LeBron James’ future with the Lakers remains to be seen, but he will continue to gauge interest as the draft gets closer.
