What could the noise coming from my car's wheel mean?

The wheel on the driver's side of my car makes a low pitched squeek when the wheel gets pushed up into the wheel well (like when going over a speed bump) and it also makes a thump/grinding sound when I hit the brakes very hard. What could this be? Are the problems related? Any help would be appreciated!
