UPDATE: LeBron James has agreed to four-year, $154-million deal to join the Los Angeles Lakers. Read more here.
Brett Brown told us this was coming.
The most jarring non-Twitter moment in the last two Sixers seasons came May 11. After the season ended, Brown said the team needed to immediately add a superstar. Moments later, Bryan Colangelo, then Brown’s boss, contradicted him. Colangelo said that adding a star could wait.
Colangelo isn’t Brown’s boss anymore, and the Sixers are “star-hunting,” as Brown put it last month.
The Inquirer learned that Brown and Sixers owners Josh Harris and David Blitzer were scheduled to meet with LeBron James’ representatives Sunday, the first day of NBA free agency.
