Lebron James Free Agency: 4 possible destinations for the King

2. Join the young core of the Philadelphia 76ers

Philadelphia 76ers v Boston Celtics - Game Five

The young team from Philly did something truly special in the regular season. They finished 3rd in the Eastern Conference and dismantled the Miami Heat 4-1 in the first round of the playoffs. In the semifinals, the lack of experience showed as they were humbled by the Boston Celtics 1-4, in a series where they clearly looked like they were no match for their opponents.

Having said that, to finish 3rd in the conference is an incredible feat and one can be certain that having Joel Embiid and Ben Simmons as the prospective franchise players for years to come, the 76ers have the foundations in place to win a few rings in the near future. They can definitely become a dominant force if they can build around their young stars.

LeBron James would not only add superstar status to Philadelphia but also would set up a Big Three that could challenge any team on any given day in the league. Having this young core would help lower the burden LeBron is currently carrying with the Cavs. A slight drop in minutes would mean an increase in James' efficiency. It would also benefit the 33-year-old's longevity.

The future is definitely bright for Philly with or without James but it is now up to the King to consider whether or not he wants to join this bandwagon.
