Bronny James’ agent telling teams other than Lakers and Suns not to draft him, per report image

The Bronny James NBA Draft saga is reaching its peak, as the former USC guard is reportedly forcing his way to a specific destination.

According to Bob Myers, "Rich Paul is calling teams, don't take Bronny James ... if you take him, he's going to Australia."

This report excludes the Phoenix Suns and Los Angeles Lakers, who remain the two heaviest rumored destinations for James, but this is an effort for an organization to not gain leverage over the Lakers. If a team, such as the Boston Celtics or Dallas Mavericks, opted to select him, they could request a major haul of assets to trade him to LA.
