NBA free agency winners and losers: Sixers cash in while Celtics pay price

The Philadelphia 76ers have been identified as one of the biggest winners in the first week of NBA free agency, reportedly making a blockbuster signing that included a former Boston Celtics player. The Boston Celtics are meanwhile considered losers in the early free agency period, paying a significant price in the process. LeBron James also featured prominently in the free agency market, continuing his pattern of influencing player movement.
