A Duke basketball name is popping up in a potential high-profile NBA trade.

On Wednesday, Jason Anderson of The Sacramento Bee detailed the ongoing trade chatter between the Sacramento Kings and Philadelphia 76ers. Indeed, Ben Simmons is at the center of the talks. And for the Sixers to end up shipping their former No. 1 overall draft pick to Sactown, it seems the Kings would likely need to include their lone former Duke basketball player in a deal.
