NBA Trades: One Ben Simmons trade for every NBA team – Golden State Warriors
On one hand, the Golden State Warriors look like the best team in the league and still have an All-Star on the way back to the court with Klay Thompson being cleared for basketball activities this past weekend. Seeing what they have with their roster at full health makes plenty of sense for a team with title aspirations.
However, the thought of employing a defense and passing game led by Draymond Green and Ben Simmons would be a thing of nightmares for the rest of the league.
Simmons is among the best players in the world at creating three-point shots for others. Doing that for the likes of Steph Curry, Klay Thompson, and Jordan Poole would lead to some of the most aesthetically pleasing basketball imaginable. Luckily, the Warriors have been quietly amassing quite the list of trade assets to add a potential fourth star.
Andrew Wiggins would likely have to be involved for salary matching purposes. As solid as he has been for the Warriors, that is the kind of sacrifice they could survive. The Sixers would be reuniting college teammates in Wiggins and Embiid, a fun nod to a time that saw them look like potential number one picks at Kansas.
One of the various first-round picks in recent seasons would be going back to the Sixers, and in this case, it is Moses Moody. Not only is he getting the least amount of run with the Warriors, but he would also fit the mold of the type of prospects the Sixers need. This Ben Simmons trade would be fascinating.
