As I’ve said multiple times in the past, I would not bet my life savings on LeBron James joining the Philadelphia 76ers. He’s the best player in the world with significant ties to both Cleveland and Los Angeles, which would put Philly at an inherent disadvantage in free agency.
Still, the basketball fit makes a lot of sense, and James does have a personal connection to Ben Simmons. The validity of this statement is still debatable, but Alaa Abdelnaby said that LeBron, through a superintendent, was looking at private schools in the Philly area over All-Star weekend.
