## Resource

Cleveland’s front office just got a major shakeup as Brandon Weems, the longtime scout who’s been climbing the ranks for a decade, is now officially named General Manager. This comes amid a surprising twist: LeBron James, once thought to be returning home to Cleveland, instead signed a two-year deal with the Philadelphia 76ers — calling it his final stop before retirement. LeBron praised LA, Miami, and Northeast Ohio as home, while Philly gets him alongside James Harden, Donovan Mitchell, Peyton Watson, Evan Mobley, and Jarrett Allen. Meanwhile, Cleveland locked up Mitchell to a massive four-year, $273 million extension — setting the stage for a bold, high-stakes rebuild. Can this new roster actually contend for a title?
