Toronto Raptors
There are a few teams who have been mentioned often as a possible landing spot for Ben Simmons via trade, including the Portland Trail Blazers, the Chicago Bulls, the Golden State Warriors, the Washington Wizards, and a couple of others. But one team that should be spoken about more as a potential fit is the Toronto Raptors.
Some may not consider the Raptors a dark-horse destination, but their odds of acquiring Simmons are in the same range as teams like the Indiana Pacers and the Boston Celtics.
That being said, with Kyle Lowry being a possible target for the 76ers this offseason, Simmons could be part of a sign-and-trade for the veteran point guard.
Whoever lands Simmons next needs to realize that if he continues to neglect his development as an outside shooter, then he could excel in a Draymond Green-like role at one of the forward spots.

The Raptors could add Ben Simmons to a team that already has Fred VanVleet, OG Anunoby, Pascal Siakam, and Chris Boucher, which would take some pressure off of Simmons to be a main scorer on the team.
