Story summary

The biggest storyline of the upcoming 2026-27 NBA season, according to experts at the New York Post, is the arrival of LeBron James with the Philadelphia 76ers. This marks LeBron's first change in team since 2018, and he joins forces with a roster including stars like Jaylen Brown, Joel Embiid, and Tyrese Maxey to chase his fifth championship title. The experts speculate about whether this new superteam can challenge other contenders, such as the Knicks' Karl-Anthony Towns contract situation, but emphasize LeBron's move to Philadelphia as particularly intriguing due to its historical significance in NBA lore after Michael Jordan.
