The Story in 60 Seconds

Writer Nicolas Kyle Pring argues that the Philadelphia 76ers need to encourage LeBron James to be a more aggressive scorer. While James has taken a step back to focus primarily on playmaking, averaging a career-low 15.6 points per game, he delivered a season-high 22 points on 8-of-16 shooting in a recent victory against the Chicago Bulls.

Pring suggests that the 76ers' offense is far from optimized despite their strong record of only two losses. He contends that actively incorporating James' scoring ability alongside his elite passing would keep opposing defenses off balance and open up easier offensive opportunities for the team.
