LeBron agreed to give up a significant sum of money in order to join the Suns, building a legendary superteam.
LeBron James and Bronny are reportedly targets for the Phoenix Suns this offseason.
Phoenix — For the Phoenix Suns, who are anticipated to pursue even more star power this offseason, a wild scenario now seems plausible.
From Evan Sidery, an NBA insider:
“Bronny James is a very serious draft option at No. 22 overall to potentially lure LeBron James in, as the Suns hope to pursue him this offseason,” he posted on Twitter/X.
Phoenix seems to think they can get LeBron to team up with Bradley Beal, Kevin Durant, and Devin Booker to form a legendary superteam.
“LeBron would be sacrificing almost $50 million next season, if he were to legitimately consider joining the Suns on a veteran’s minimum contract.
“Could the Suns really be plotting LeBron and Bronny as their big plan? It certainly seems that’s on the table.”
As Sidery hinted earlier, the Suns’ options in free agency are restricted because of their status in the second tier of the luxury tax. Only veteran minimum contracts may be signed by outside players by Phoenix.
Many conversations have taken place over the Suns’ final decision on draft night, when they can trade both their future 2031 selection and the No. 22 overall pick. Many predict that Phoenix will look into trade possibilities with those choices and a player, possibly Jusuf Nurkic, to add another “win-now” piece to their jigsaw.
LeBron’s son Bronny will be practicing with the Suns before to the June 26 NBA Draft in 2024. The USC guard has a player-option that he can reject with the Los Angeles Lakers this summer, but some in the NBA feel a team selecting him in the first round would do so in an attempt to acquire his father.
Drama and compelling tales are always present in the NBA offseason, even if it’s obvious the Suns have the potential to be very successful this summer.
