New York Knicks Receive: G/F Ben Simmons
Brooklyn Nets Receive: F Julius Randle, G Derrick Rose

Sometimes, the best way to move a distressed asset is to swap them for…another distressed asset. That’s what Julius Randle has become for the New York Knicks.

Nobody saw that coming in 2020-21, and it’s unfortunate really. Randle was named the league’s most improved player and to the All-NBA Second-Team. He looked ready to be a Knicks cornerstone for the foreseeable future.

Unfortunately, last season, that all came to a close. Randle’s efficiency plummeted, and his trade value did the same. He spent the season fighting with teammates and coaches alike. Now, the Knicks will probably search for a new home for him.

Whether the Nets would be willing to provide it or not is a different story.
