It’s been about a week since The Athletic’s Shams Charania reported that the Philadelphia 76ers have opened up trade discussions regarding Ben Simmons. Truth be told, most fans and analysts already knew this was coming following the fallout from the Sixers’ Game 7 loss to the Hawks. What people can’t seem to agree on is what compensation it would take for the three-time All-Star to get dealt.
The Kings’ reported package they are “probably” willing to offer is Marvin Bagley, Buddy Hield, and 1-2 first-round draft picks.
