Glad you’re here. This post preview is exclusively yours as a Paid subscriber. Thanks for supporting The Dope.



Look, it’s a storyline.

Is it a concocted storyline? Oh, yeah — but you already knew that. You knew it when Rich Paul, the agent for both Bronny James and Bronny’s father LeBron, reportedly started telling certain NBA teams to not bother drafting Bronny.

You knew it when the agent further said that Bronny would not be signing a two-way contract, meaning he wouldn’t agree to any deal that could involve him playing in the NBA’s G League. That might have given a few teams pause, considering Bronny’s college averages of, let’s see here, 4.8 points, 2.8 rebounds and 2.1 assists per game.

You knew it when Bob Myers, the former top executive at Golden State, relayed during ESPN’s draft coverage that Paul was telling some teams, “If you take him, he’s going to Australia.”
