76ers believed to face possible Jaylen Brown problem during LeBron James recruitment process

Will the Philadelphia 76ers eventually find themselves having a problem with Jaylen Brown if they decide to bring in LeBron James? 

I don't think that's something that would happen, but others are starting to believe that it isn't as crazy as it might sound. In fact, one executive recently suggested that if James were to land in Philadelphia, there's a chance there could be some problems because Brown wouldn't be the top option on the offensive side of the basketball.

“Jaylen is a great player and he is not going to be a locker room problem or anything like that, but if he wasn’t real happy sharing the ball with Jayson Tatum, how happy is he going to be in this set-up? Isn’t it the same issue?” one NBA executive said, per Sean Deveney.

Brown, undoubtedly one of the elite scorers in the NBA, would have the right to feel a certain way if he didn't get as many touches. 

However, the 76ers didn't bring him in for it to be the Jaylen Brown show. 

At the end of the day, they want to win basketball games, and they believe that this gives them the best chance to do so. Landing James would be the exact same thought, as he's undoubtedly one of the elite players in the NBA, even at his age. I don't want to say that this could become an issue, but it is a story to watch out for.
