More on Wikipedia ↗The Boston Celtics and Philadelphia 76ers preseason matchup was the first time former title-winning teammates Jayson Tatum and Jaylen Brown met as opponents. Tatum and Brown spent eight years building one of the best wing partnerships in the NBA, resulting in the team winning its 18th NBA title in 2024.
Former Cleveland Cavaliers star LeBron James will take the court as a member of the Philadelphia 76ers soon.
Sixers fans previously got a taste of James on the court in Sixers gear when the team held its annual Blue x White scrimmage on Saturday at Xfinity Mobile Arena.
