Ever since the playoffs of the 2020-21 season concluded, the NBA has been a wild ride of free agent signings and trades in the off-season. The biggest question mark though has been on the future of Ben Simmons.

Bleacher Report’s Tim Daniels certainly knows his way through trades and in his recent article proposed a wild trade. Involving a total of whooping five teams and multiple All-Stars, the trade sees the futures of multiple teams turn upside down.

With Irving going to the Sacramento Kings, Wizards adding the likes of CJ McCollum and Buddy Hield, Blazers adding Ben Simmons, Nets adding De’Aaron Fox and 76ers receiving Damian Lillard and Bradley Beal, this trade will certainly have major implications on the league.

Involving a total of 13 players and 7 picks in the process, the trade is absolutely wild. Although the thought behind the same is certainly incredible and might be considered a win for all the teams involved, adding so many teams in the process will be a major hiccup. Given the number of transactions that will have to take place for this trade to occur, the chances of this trade to occur is almost impossible.
