Joel Embiid

Philadelphia spoiled New York's ring ceremony with a 106-100 win at Madison Square Garden. Tyrese Maxey scored 28 points, while LeBron James and Jaylen Brown debuted for the Sixers.

LeBron James made his home debut for Philadelphia, scoring 8 points in a 125-120 overtime preseason loss to Boston as the Sixers prepare for the new NBA season.

Veteran broadcaster Mike Breen apologized after falsely claiming LeBron James scolded Joel Embiid for lateness. LeBron denied the report, prompting Breen's retraction.

LeBron James reveals on his podcast why he joined the Philadelphia 76ers, aiming to help Joel Embiid win his first NBA championship and complete 'The Process'.

Three rival NBA assistant coaches analyzed the move and pointed to the immense potential alongside the question marks: "It's not fantasy, it's much more complex."

With LeBron, Embiid, Brown, and Maxey, the Philadelphia 76ers have assembled an unprecedented roster of players who must have the ball in their hands. History shows it's possible, but requires sacrifice. Who will give up their ego?

The Sixers built a flashy starting five, but LeBron will require Maxey, Brown, Edgecombe, and Embiid to change roles, while the bench and defense raise doubts. Personal and business ties explain the connection, but on the court, it still looks problematic.
