On July 9, 2026, NFL standout Saquon Barkley made a direct pitch to LeBron James, encouraging the basketball superstar to sign with the Philadelphia 76ers.
“You’ll be remembered forever,” Barkley told James, underscoring the impact he believes the move would have on the four-time NBA champion’s legacy.
The brief appeal added to the ongoing speculation about James’s future, though the veteran forward has not publicly addressed Barkley’s invitation or disclosed his next career step.
