The current majority opinion on Bronny James’ 2024 NBA draft position

Hint: Analysts don’t think Bronny is a lottery pick, but they also think he’s better than a mid-second-rounder.

The USC Trojans have a galaxy of stars as they enter one of the most anticipated basketball seasons in school history.

The Men of Troy have two basketball stars who will generate a ton of media attention this coming season: Isaiah Collier and Bronny James. Boogie Ellis will be a player to watch as well, but Collier and Bronny will get most of the media’s focus and air time once the 2023-2024 college basketball season begins.

Travis Branham of 247Sports produced a way-too-early 2024 NBA draft big board. Bronny James slots in at No. 27 after rising from a No. 33 spot in a previous set of projections. There is no question Bronny brings talent (and the name), but he has some things to work on this coming season:

“He’s a talented shooting guard prospect with a college-ready body, impressive athleticism, terrific feel and instincts for the game and able to make shots from three. However, he hasn’t had the most productive or consistent high school careers but the production and impact have been becoming more consistent towards the end of his senior year,” Branham wrote.

Bronny is hitting a number of draft boards as a late-first-round pick. That seems to be the majority view as of June of 2023. We will see how much that position changes over the next 12 months.
