Sacramento Kings Receive: G/F Ben Simmons
Brooklyn Nets Receive: C Richaun Holmes, F Terence Davis, F Harrison Barnes, 2024 First-Round Pick (Top-3 Protected)
As time goes on, Ben Simmons’ name carries less and less weight.
The downfall of Simmons’ stock began during the postseason last year when the Atlanta Hawks eliminated the Sixers. It’s been downhill ever since.
It continues as he cannot step on the floor and show that his game has been approved. Because of this, Brooklyn is unlikely to get one of Sacramento’s stars in a trade.
If Simmons is sent to Sacramento, Richaun Holmes and Harrison Barnes could be the key pieces being moved. The Nets would be able to fill some important roles around Kyrie Irving and Kevin Durant.
