4 three-team NBA trades involving Ben Simmons and Tobias Harris: Atlanta Hawks and Utah Jazz

The final trade involving the Atlanta Hawks and the Philadelphia 76ers sees the Hawks walk away with both Ben Simmons and Paul Reed.

The Utah Jazz step in as the team bringing in Tobias Harris to reshuffle the team after their venture into small-ball options in the offseason did not quite work out. Charles Bassey finishes out the deal and is a young talent worth looking at.

Much like trade number one, the Sixers end up with a fully stocked bench unit as well as shooting expertise. Collins and Reddish have been previously discussed, but the fit looks even better with both of the Utah shooters coming through.

In each of the last six seasons, Bojan Bogdanovic has shot at least 39 percent on at least 4.4 attempts per game. Joe Ingles is an expiring contract that has slid noticeably this season but was in the running for Sixth Man of the Year just a season ago. He would bring a level of leadership and emotion that would fit the team well.

Rudy Gay is the last bit of salary filler involved in the trade and while he has not had the season he would have hoped. Coming off the bench in Philadelphia, he may be able to jumpstart his production this season.
