LeBron James, the ultimate winner with four rings and a Hall of Fame resume, was seriously considering retirement after 23 seasons—but instead, he’s signed a two-year, $8M deal with the Philadelphia 76ers to chase at least one more championship, maybe two.

Now, the veteran king brings his championship DNA to Philly, poised to elevate the Sixers’ title hopes.
