What happened: LeBron chose Philadelphia after Cleveland emerged as a leading option for his next team. The decision ended the Cavaliers' pursuit of a third stint.

What to watch: Cleveland's next roster move and Philadelphia's plans for integrating its new lineup will come into focus before training camp.
