It could not be stated enough that the Philadelphia 76ers fell short of expectations this postseason. The catalyst for that disappointment was the underwhelming play of All-Star Ben Simmons.

While there have been trade articles about Simmons coming out on this site, there’s a real chance he doesn’t get dealt this offseason. The market is at an all time low for the current runner-up for Defensive Player of the Year.

I’ve written in the past wrote that if he stays his position will need to change to more of a point forward role where he’s a secondary playmaker.
