James started the match and played 18 minutes in the first half. During that time, he scored 10 points, made five assists and grabbed four rebounds. LeBron made his only field goal and all eight of his free throws. He did not return to the court in the second half.
The match gave Philadelphia the chance to put their revamped squad through its paces for the first time. Joel Embiid, Tyrese Maxey, Jaylen Brown and V.J. Edgecomb took to the court alongside James. After the first half, the 76ers led 58–56, but in the third quarter the Brooklyn Nets seized the initiative and ultimately secured the victory.
James joined Philadelphia in the summer after eight seasons with the Los Angeles Lakers. He will turn 42 in October, and the upcoming season will be a record-breaking 24th for him in the NBA. Despite his age, he remains one of the highest-scoring players in the league’s history and its all-time leading scorer.
The NBA regular season for the Philadelphia 76ers will begin on 20 October with a match against the reigning champions, the New York Knicks.
