Bronny Not Bound to Follow LeBron as He Joins the 76ers

LeBron James’ move to the Philadelphia 76ers doesn’t mean his son Bronny will join him; Rich Paul says Bronny is not a package deal and there’s no plan for him to end up in Philly. Dan Woike adds that the father–son linkage isn’t guaranteed, while teams reportedly discussed Bronny as a potential target should LeBron switch teams, though it’s unclear if the Sixers were involved. Bronny, 21, played sparingly for the Lakers last season (roughly half the games, 2.9 ppg) and is seen as a possible 3‑and‑D bench piece; long‑term, playing for a different team could help him prove himself beyond nepotism concerns.

Brunson powers Knicks to 3-0 series lead over 76ers

The Knicks erased an early deficit in Philadelphia, then pulled away with a dominant second quarter and a late 13-3 run to beat the 76ers 108-94 and take a commanding 3-0 series lead. Jalen Brunson finished with 33 points and nine assists, Mikal Bridges scored 23 and defended Tyrese Maxey, and New York benefited from a strong bench effort while OG Anunoby was out and Karl-Anthony Towns played limited minutes due to foul trouble. Embiid had 18 and Maxey 17 for Philly, but a switch-heavy defense and timely scoring propelled the Knicks, who have now won six straight postseason games.

Knicks meet healthy 76ers in a pivotal second-round showdown

The Knicks advance to the second round after beating the Hawks and will face a healthier, red-hot 76ers who rallied from down 3-1 to knock off the Celtics. Philadelphia, the 7th seed, is led by a fully fit Joel Embiid (back from appendicitis) alongside Maxey and George, while New York, coached by Mike Brown, rode a late-series surge to reach the next round. The series begins Monday at Madison Square Garden as both teams chase more postseason history.
