NBA free agency: Sixers' Brett Brown makes 1st moves as precursor to LeBron James?

These are strange days for the Sixers.

Head coach Brett Brown is running the front office after the sudden departure of Bryan Colangelo.

Which means Brown will be the key to the team landing LeBron James, should he opt out of his contract with the Cleveland Cavaliers.

But Brown is already hard at work building the roster for next season.

On Wednesday, he picked up the contract options for guard T.J. McConnell and forward Richaun Holmes.

The LeBron James sweepstakes is about to begin.
