Detroit Pistons Receive: G/F Ben Simmons

Philadelphia 76ers Receive: F Jerami Grant, Cory Joseph, Kelly Olynyk, 2022 First-Round Pick, 2024 First-Round Pick

Ben Simmons would be the centerpiece of this NBA trade scenario as he would be getting a fresh start after his tenure with the Philadelphia 76ers coming to a close. However, there would be another big name that is switching sides — Jerami Grant, who would be dealt by the Detroit Pistons.

The 76ers could ask for Jerami Grant in return and the Pistons would not have a problem moving him in the deal.

Grant signed a three-year deal with Detroit last offseason and put up his best statistical season — finishing the 2020-21 season as a finalist for the NBA’s Most Improved Player Award.

The Sixers would also get veterans Cory Joseph and Kelly Olynyk. This would continue to build depth, which is huge during the most important time of the year.

Philadelphia would finish the deal by acquiring some draft capital — a necessary element for any team who is not parting with a superstar like Damian Lillard or Bradley Beal.
