Philadelphia 76ers Receive: F/C Jaren Jackson Jr., G De’Anthony Melton
Memphis Grizzlies Receive: G James Harden

Here, the Memphis Grizzlies land James Harden without mortgaging either their depth or their future. Of course, they’re parting with Jaren Jackson Jr. That’s rough, but Morey isn’t giving Harden away.

It might be worth it. Harden may have lost a step, but on Memphis, he’d instantly become the best secondary playmaker in the league. Even if he’s no longer equipped to be the entire focus of an NBA offense, he’s surely able to attack a defense that was set to stop Ja Morant.

Meanwhile, the 76ers pair Jaren Jackson Jr. with Joel Embiid in the frontcourt. They’ll be assembling the modern version of the Twin Towers. Scoring on this duo on the interior will verge on the impossible, all while allowing the team to maintain modern spacing standards.

The 76ers probably won’t trade James Harden this summer. We all know this. Still, if you use your imagination, you can envision a world where it happens.
