Suns, Lakers to Work Out Bronny James Ahead of NBA Draft

The Phoenix Suns and Los Angeles Lakers are among the select teams planning to host Bronny James for a workout in preparation for next month's NBA draft, according to sources cited by The Athletic's Shams Charania and Doug Haller.

James has reportedly received over ten workout invitations but is set to visit only a few teams.

The Suns, who hold the No. 22 overall pick, are considering James as a potential first-round selection, according to Charania and Haller.

James declared for the draft in April after completing one season at USC. The 6-foot-1 guard averaged 4.8 points, 2.8 rebounds, and 2.1 assists over 25 appearances with the Trojans.

James has boosted his draft stock with a solid performance at the combine. The McDonald's All-American finished second in the 3-point star shooting drill and recorded the sixth-best max vertical leap at 40.5 inches.

James' agent, Rich Paul, recently confirmed that James will not be signing a two-way contract.

"Yes, that's absolutely true," Paul told Bleacher Report's Chris Haynes. "Teams know that. I'm not doing that."
