Brooklyn Nets Receive: G Tyus Jones, G/F Dillon Brooks, G/F Danny Green, 2023 First-Round Pick (MEM), 2029 First-Round Pick (Swap – MEM)
Memphis Grizzlies Receive: G/F Ben Simmons

First, a caveat: this trade can’t happen tomorrow. The Grizzlies just traded for Danny Green: they can’t trade him again until August 23rd.

On a related note: poor Danny Green. He suffered an injury that’s likely to keep him off the floor for most of 2022-23. The Sixers swapped his contract on draft night in exchange for De’Anthony Melton. Now, we’ve got him changing locations again.

Such is life in the NBA. Consider it an occupational hazard. Ben Simmons will also be getting dealt before ever suiting up with a team he was rostered by. It happens.

Life is unfair, and the NBA is no exception. More specifically, injuries are a massive part of professional sports. They just happen to be, by a considerable margin, the worst part.

On that note: Simmons, unfortunately, suffers a lot of them. That’s also true of Jaren Jackson Jr. Should the Grizzlies really take on this risk?
