Ben Simmons’ trade status with the Philadelphia 76ers

Ever since the Philadelphia 76ers were eliminated in embarrassing fashion by the Atlanta Hawks in the Eastern Conference Semi-Finals, Ben Simmons’ relationship with the team has deteriorated.

Philadelphia has considered trading the former first-round pick and Simmons is reportedly open to being dealt to a new team. However, the 76ers haven’t been able to find a suitor this offseason, mainly due to their steep asking price.

Simmons doesn’t want anything to do with the 76ers anymore, as the organization has sent mixed signals on how they feel about him.

There’s a chance the trade rumors surrounding Simmons leak into the regular season if Philadelphia can’t find a trade partner.
