Oh No He Didn't: VJ Edgecombe on where he was when Lebron announced he was signing with the Sixers: "I was on the court mid-workout, so I'm literally working out. Coach, his Apple Watch keep going off and off and off. He's like, damn, what's happening? He's like yo we just got Bron. I'm like, you're lying. Equipment guys came out, medical guy came out. We just got Bron, so I stopped working out, went to my phone, I seen Shams tweeted we got Bron...so I finished my workout...I had to finish the workout"
Draymond Green: “I think to understand this statement though, you always have to understand the way KD view basketball. And the way KD view basketball is very Uncle Drewish. This game will and always will be about buckets that’s how KD view the game. So when KD say, “Yo, they got four 25 point scorers, you have to understand in KD mind what that means.” So first off in order to understand Kevin’s statement, you have to understand his mindset and how he see the game and how he see the game. This game is about buckets. So when he mentioned, Yo, they got four 25 point scorers. Hell yeah, they’re going to be a contender. That’s how KD see the game. It’s going to be league pass worthy. Absolutely. But that is how KD see the game. So he’s going to mention to 25 point scorers. And I again I think everybody look at that and be like, “Oh man, that team is nothing like that team was like I don’t think he never said that.”
Austin Krell: Jaylen Brown said on his Twitch last night that he lost 7 lbs this offseason. “Just to be a little more fast and nimble. I gotta keep up with Maxey, Edgecombe and LeBron this year…I feel great, I’m jumping higher, running faster.”
MrBuckBuck: Jaylen Brown talks about Kyrie Irving being blackballed after not taking the COVID Vaccine: "During the trial, Fauci pleaded the 5th; it leaves speculation for what was real and what wasn't. Imagine losing hundreds of millions of dollars for what you believe in. Imagine losing endorsements; Nike dropped him" Via @FCHWPO (https://x.com/FCHWPO)
FullCourtPass: “I kept calling Tyrese and I was like, “Are we getting Bron? Are we getting Bron?” Tyrese is like, “Bro, I don’t know.” “I don’t think so.” He knew the whole time. But he ain’t want to tell me” - VJ Edgecombe on LeBron to Philly 😭

NBA Courtside: VJ Edgecombe on LeBron James joining the Sixers: “I don’t know LeBron. Like, I love LeBron, don’t get me wrong. I just never like I met him. Obviously, we played against each other. Obviously that’s who I, you know, looked up to when it comes to basketball and stuff like that. That’s one of the reasons why I started playing ball. When he was in Miami, but I ain’t know him. But I keep calling Tyrese and I was like, “Are we getting Bron? Are we getting Bron?” And Tyrese is like, “Bro, I don’t know.” Like, “I don’t think so.” But he knew the whole time. But he ain’t want to tell me. That’s what I feel. I might be wrong.”
Bobby Krivitsky: Ron Harper Jr. recalls finding out he was starting in Game 7 vs. the Sixers from Da’Sean Butler who works closely with him: “I literally found out when I got to the gym. I got out on the court for my shooting time, and Da’Sean Butler told me…I was ready for the moment.”
Bobby Krivitsky: Ron Harper Jr. reveals his top-5 NBA players of all-time. It’s a list that includes Steph Curry. He also has his dad’s former teammate, Michael Jordan, ahead of LeBron James.
Bobby Krivitsky: Ron Harper Jr. on the Celtics trading Jaylen Brown: “Obviously, sad to see him go. A guy that I've grown close to in my time at the Celtics…A guy that still trusted me when I was still on an Exhibit 10. “So, I remember the message he shared with me, the motivation he's given me, and the advice he's given me. And it sucks to see him go. But you know, this is a business more than anything. So I wish him luck in the future, except when he plays us.”

The ABCD Camp was the premier summer event for 22 years in the ‘90s and early 2000s. Basketball legend Sonny Vaccaro founded the camp in 1984, and the stories and matchups to come out each year changed the trajectory for some players. The camp ended in 2006, but Tracy McGrady and Vaccaro revived it 20 years later, and 50 of the top players in the country came out to compete over the weekend. Kobe Bryant was the camp MVP in 1995, and in 2001, it was16-year-old LeBron James who solidified himself as the best prospect in the nation. James stole the ball from Lenny Cooke and hit the game-winner, a one-legged 35-foot jumper, in the championship game. James’s nickname “The Chosen One” resulted from the ABCD Camp.
The 2016-17 Warriors might be the greatest team of all time, but Kevin Durant believes the 2026-27 76ers are as good on paper. Durant implied that's what he thought during a USA Basketball event on Sunday, and he doubled down on Monday when replying to a fan on Instagram who said the two teams "ain't close." "Ain’t close lmao," Durant replied. "Joel, mvp recently. Jaylen brown, recent finals mvp, Tyrese Maxey, all star the last 3 years. We all know what bron does. Klay Thompson, never a mvp candidate in nothing, 22ppg. Draymond, 14ppg 7 rebounds 6 assist, Steph a mvp just like Joel was. I don’t get how the warriors team is better on paper."
Jaylen Brown is excited for the next chapter of his NBA career for one obvious reason. “Yo, we got ‘Bron, and what an opportunity that is,” Brown said Monday on a Twitch livestream, during which the All-NBA forward provided his first public remarks on LeBron James’ decision to sign with the Philadelphia 76ers this offseason. “Like, obviously, everybody (is) gonna say whatever they want to say, and it’s gonna be a bunch of media this whole entire season,” Brown added. “But like, for me, like, what an opportunity (it) is to learn. I love learning, so to have the opportunity to learn from one of, if not the greatest player of all time.”
Brown also unboxed and tried on his No. 7 Sixers jersey on the stream. “I ain’t gonna lie, this is the first-ever jersey in the NBA besides the Boston jersey that I’ve even put on,” Brown said. “Just now, just right now here on chat. I just realized, this is my first time ever in 10 years I’ve been playing in the NBA, wearing another jersey for another team. “It honestly feels weird, you know what I mean? But it looks fire.”
