Slug: 76ers-reportedly-eye-james-family-trade
The Philadelphia 76ers have discussed a trade scenario that would land both LeBron James and his son, rookie guard Bronny James, in Philadelphia, the New York Post reported on July 24, 2026.
According to the Post, early conversations with the Los Angeles Lakers include a framework that would meet salary-matching rules and provide future draft compensation. Specific player names and pick protections were not disclosed, and no formal offer has been submitted.
The report notes that, under NBA regulations, a newly signed first-round pick may be traded 30 days after signing his rookie contract, creating a narrow window later this summer should the two franchises choose to proceed.
Representatives for the 76ers, the Lakers and the James family declined to comment when contacted by the Post.
