00:00After nearly a month of waiting, LeBron James has made his decision on where he'll continue his legendary NBA career.
00:08LeBron is signing a two-year, $8 million contract with the Philadelphia 76ers and a free agency stunner.
00:17Joining the likes of Joel Embiid, Tyrese Maxey, BJ Edgecombe, and Jaylen Brown,
00:23who the 76ers also acquired earlier this offseason from the Boston Celtics.
00:28It's been three and a half weeks since it was known LeBron wouldn't be returning to the Lakers.
00:32And even though the 76ers had been on his list the entire time,
00:36most people I talked to throughout the league didn't expect for him to eventually land in Philadelphia.
00:41But LeBron has made his choice to return to the East to a team specifically that he heavily considered
00:47before signing with the Lakers during the 2018 offseason.
00:5276ers immediately become a NBA championship contender right behind the Knicks in the East.
00:57They have star power, they have versatility, they have a championship winning head coach,
01:02and they have youth and experience on their side,
01:04but also one of the greatest players of all time joining them to compete for an NBA title.
