Derek Fisher speaks on how Jaylen Brown's drawing power helped the 76ers build the team
Jaylen Brown has had a bigger impact than most people realize for the 76ers.
Derek Fisher, a five-time NBA champion, discussed the impact of Jaylen Brown on the Philadelphia 76ers' roster construction during the 2026 offseason. Fisher noted that Brown's presence helped the 76ers attract other top talent, such as LeBron James, making the team a highly coveted destination for veteran players seeking a championship-contending environment.
Fisher explained that Brown's ability to draw in new teammates with his mere presence played a significant role in the 76ers' decision to acquire him. The addition of Brown, along with the signing of LeBron James and other key players, transformed the 76ers into a competitive team with strong depth, positioning them as a potential championship contender for the 2027 season.
