After a month without news on the Ben Simmons trade front, ESPN’s Adrian Wojnarowski reported that Rich Paul met with the Sixers front office in Philadelphia to make progress on a trade. This came a day after Marc Spears and Brian Windhorst reported the Sixers are trying to include Tobias Harris in a potential deal.
ESPN Sources: Agent for Ben Simmons – Klutch Sports CEO Rich Paul – met with Sixers’ Daryl Morey and Elton Brand to discuss status of stalemate today. Stances unchanged: Simmons no closer to playing this season – and Sixers determined to bring back a significant player in trade.
