LeBron James ended weeks of uncertainty Friday by announcing on social media that he will join the Philadelphia 76ers. His agent, Rich Paul, told ESPN that the 41-year-old agreed to a two-year, $8 million contract containing a player option.

The Philadelphia 76ers are now the fourth favorite to win the 2027 NBA Finals following the addition of LeBron James.

From the moment Mike Gansey took questions in the minutes after his first move as president of basketball operations, the Sixers have made it clear that they expect rookie guard Labaron Philon Jr. to be in the regular rotation.
