 It wasn't just that he wants to play with his son on the NBA and be a Laker. He had to be drafted, too, which makes zero sense to me. He only worked out for one of the Team Phoenix. Nobody was going to take him. Nobody was going to take Bronny. I will guarantee you that. They could assign him as an amateur free agent. Now, for all I know, but that wasn't good enough for LeBron. He had to be drafted.
