LeBron to Philly? Governor Shapiro’s Pitch | Philadelphia 76ers News

LeBron James is reportedly set to join the Sixers for the 2026-27 season, with Governor Josh Shapiro personally pitching the idea at a dinner—and even appearing on Stephen A. Smith to hype the move. While rumors suggest LeBron might commute from New York, bringing a title back to Pennsylvania after 43 years would make the travel worth it. This could be the Sixers’ best shot at a championship since the Allen Iverson era, maybe even better than their 2018-19 squad, especially with LeBron’s proven ability to make it work—just like JJ Redick did before him. With the governor on board and LeBron’s championship pedigree, Philly is back in the title conversation. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
