NBA Plans Sweeping Anti-Tanking Draft Changes

LeBron James is entering a record 24th NBA season with Philadelphia, where his pursuit of a championship with a fourth franchise is a major storyline despite his having already secured the league’s career scoring record and numerous other statistical milestones. His arrival alongside Joel Embiid, Tyrese Maxey and newly acquired Jaylen Brown has raised expectations among 76ers fans, who hope the star-studded roster can end the franchise’s title drought, though supporters remain wary after past disappointments. James is also set to play for his 11th career coach, Nick Nurse, and could move into second place on the NBA’s career two-point field-goals list.
