The Philadelphia 76ers continue to receive trade interest on Ben Simmons from a number of teams, including the Minnesota Timberwolves, Indiana Pacers, Detroit Pistons, Toronto Raptors and San Antonio Spurs.
Despite Simmons' decision to hold out, the 76ers maintain that they won't trade him unless they secure a deal they like.
The 76ers have clearly signaled that they'd prefer to trade Simmons as they shopped him in discussions for James Harden and have also worked on it this week.
Simmons believes his relationship with the 76ers and with Joel Embiid has run its course.
“They know that,” a source said. “They’ve known that. It doesn’t matter whether Ben shows up here today or two weeks from now. He’s going to be in street clothes, and you are not going to get the same Ben Simmons. So you might as well move on.”
