LeBron James just hit the gym with new teammates Jaylen Brown and Tyrese Maxey, and the shoes were front and center. The workout took place in Los Angeles under trainer Chris Johnson. It's the first time all three have trained together since Lebron signed with Philadelphia.
LeBron James laced up in a sleek black pair for the session, sticking to his usual all black training look. It's a fitting choice heading into a big year, especially with his LeBron 24 signature shoe already confirmed for release this season. At 41 years old, Lebron still treats these early sessions like any other workout day.
Tyrese Maxey isn't far behind on the sneaker front either. He's coming off the release of his first signature shoe with New Balance. The Maxey v1, built around FuelCell cushioning and a stability focused plate system. Seeing him train in New Balance gear alongside two of his new Nike teammates makes for an interesting mix on the same court.
Jaylen Brown rounded out the trio, joining the session fresh off his blockbuster trade from Boston. Between three different sneaker deals sharing the same gym, this workout doubled as a preview of what Sixers footwear could look like all season.

This session means more than the shoes on foot. It's the first real look at them sharing a court together after Philadelphia's wild offseason overhaul. Jalen Brown arrived via trade from Boston, while James signed a 2 year deal after leaving the Lakers.
LeBron enters this season with more history riding on it than usual. He's set to open the season against the defending champion Knicks on October 20th, making his Sixers debut on one of the league's biggest stages. The LeBron 24 will be right there with him.
For a franchise chasing its first real title window in decades, even a low key workout carries plenty of buzz. With 3 shoe deals and 3 stars in the same gym, Philadelphia's new era is already taking shape on and off the court.
