Any deal of this magnitude would no doubt involve currently-inactive point guard Ben Simmons — a player whom the Sixers have been looking to trade since he requested a departure from the organization last offseason.
From the jump, Philly GM Daryl Morey made it very clear that he would only entertain a deal that offers a big-time name in return for the three-time All-Star. Former league MVP James Harden certainly satisfies this requirement.
If this deal gets done, it will have to be before the NBA’s trade deadline on Thursday, Feb. 10.
