What happened: Philadelphia reshaped its core around Tyrese Maxey and Joel Embiid by adding Jaylen Brown and LeBron James after moving Paul George. Miami also made its biggest move around Giannis Antetokounmpo, pairing him with Bam Adebayo.
Why it matters: The Sixers are balancing championship expectations with questions about fit, roles and defensive schemes. Miami’s frontcourt pairing could expand its defensive versatility while giving its offense a more reliable way to draw help.
What to watch: Training camp should reveal how Philadelphia distributes touches and how Miami builds its schemes around Antetokounmpo and Adebayo.
