VJ Edgecombe Has High Praise for 76ers Teammates LeBron James, Jaylen Brown
Philadelphia 76ers star VJ Edgecombe gave his honest thoughts about getting to know new teammates LeBron James and Jaylen Brown.
VJ Edgecombe, the Philadelphia 76ers' young talent, expressed his admiration for his new teammates LeBron James and Jaylen Brown. Drafted third overall in 2025, Edgecombe has already impressed with his skills, playing alongside fellow All-Stars Tyrese Maxey and Joel Embiid. However, this offseason, the 76ers bolstered their roster with two more stars: Brown and James.
Edgecombe praised the duo, stating that they are down-to-earth and not overly grandiose. He admitted to feeling starstruck upon meeting James, but expects that feeling to subside as they spend more time together in the locker room. Both James and Brown are proven champions and NBA Finals MVP winners, making them invaluable mentors for Edgecombe.
Last season, Edgecombe averaged 16 points, 5.6 rebounds, 4.2 assists, and 1.4 steals per game, and is expected to continue his development with two of the NBA's best players by his side.
