LeBron James’s reported choice of the Philadelphia 76ers was influenced in part by his preference for living in New York, according to Hoops Wire.
The outlet noted that James’s residence in the New York area factored into his selection process, making Philadelphia an attractive option because of its relative proximity to the city. No additional contractual details or timelines were disclosed in the report.
James, 39, is a four-time NBA champion and four-time MVP. Should the move become official, he would join a 76ers roster headlined by league MVP Joel Embiid and guard Tyrese Maxey.
Neither James nor the 76ers have publicly commented on the report.
