Bob Myers just said on ESPN's round two broadcast that Rich Paul is telling teams NOT to draft Bronny James, and that if they do he will play in Australia.
Kind of crazy that Rich Paul is doing that, so Bronny is likely headed to LA with his dad.

That’s such bullshit lol fuck klutch
Don’t draft me or I’m moving to Australia is hilarious
Draft him anyways
Australia ??? Lmao
Well that is a turn of events
Get ready to ride Kangaroos buddy
Lebron to Australia confirmed
Get ready to learn g’day mate buddy
“The girls don’t talk to you because you’re so handsome and they’re intimidated!”
This sounds so fake that it could be real
Won’t they still own his draft rights even if he does go overseas?
He’ll probably actually get a chance to play in Australia lmao
Please make him play in Australia people
Lmaooo
“if you are not the Lakers I am going to AUSTRALIA!!!!”
I hope the Raptors do it
Cmon Brad, draft him.
This is like Eli Manning if he was a 7th rounder
All this hype for a 6’2 dude who averaged 4 ppg off the bench on a bad college team
AGAIN, this ain’t nothing new. Your favorite team has likely had this happen before with some agent going “….I got a deal in place so please don’t draft my guy”. If you ain’t going 1st you may as well just be undrafted as it’s not guaranteed money in the 2nd anyways!
Lu Dort is a prime example Thunder-wise in the past few years.
I will become a fan of a team if they take Bronny before the Lakers can
People are gonna blow this out of proportion cause it’s Bronny, but this quite literally happens every draft with mid/end of the 2nd round prospects.
They tell teams not to draft them because they already have UDFA contracts lined up, and it’s not worth drafting an end of the 2nd round player that doesn’t want to be there.
—————
Every draft there’s a plethora of UDFA contracts signed seconds after the draft ends.
G’day Bronny
Boston if you draft him I will stop hating you nearly as much as I do. Do it for the memes
I am also telling teams NOT to draft me, that’s why I’m not getting drafted.
Not because I’m 5’7, 180 lbs with terrible hand eye coordination
I mean, it’s not that crazy this happens a lot with players in the second round asking teams not to draft them and trying to control their landing spot.
Celtics have the chance to do the funniest thing ever
Raptors basically got a free 2nd in that Kings deal.
Use it on Bronny! Worst case he doesn’t play but you own his draft rights and Lakers would need to give you picks back to get his rights.
call that MFer’s bluff
Good they can add more bad players to their team
So Celtics can get a Euro stash AND piss off Lebron? This might be getting too tempting for Stevens to pass up.
I’ll draft him just so he can get crossed over by a kangaroo
LeBitch legacy of shame lives on!
It won’t happen but I just want some random team that doesn’t give a rats ass to just select him to piss them all off haha
The irony is that Bronny’s ONLY shot at having ANY chance at the NBA is this very small window before his Dad retires. If he were to actually go to Australia he would be kissing any prospect of an NBA future goodbye.
Do it. Make him go to Australia.
The NBA isn’t his league to decide where he goes.
Isn’t that tampering?
And they say it’s not rigged.
