Philadelphia 76ers point guard Ben Simmons figures to have a rumor mill all his own this offseason. Following a disappointing playoff run punctuated by an average of 6.3 points over his final three games, it s fair to wonder about his future alongside Joel Embiid (who also singled out a Simmons play as the turning point of Game 7 against the Atlanta Hawks).
The trade rumors regarding Simmons started long before then, but they got much louder in the aftermath of the team s exit from the postseason. And a recent report in The Athletic by Shams Charania has turned the volume up even more.
