Golden State Warriors: 3 Ben Simmons trades that would be highway robbery
Ben Simmons to the Warriors trade suggestion: Andrew Wiggins and youth
The last potential trade we have that would be robbery for Golden State is Wiggins and their two other young talents. For both sides, this could make sense, but it would likely be a last-ditch effort for the Sixers.
Moody looked terrific in the Las Vegas Summer League, boosting his value. He averaged over 16 points per game. At 6-foot-5 and with a 7-foot-1 wingspan, there’s no reason he can’t, at the very least, turn into an elite defender.
As for Jordan Poole, he thrived in his second season in the league. Scoring 12 points per game and drastically improving his efficiency, Poole balled out and was one of the few Warriors to improve upon his previous season’s numbers.
Moody and Poole should command a return, but those three for Simmons is still a deal the Warriors should take in a heartbeat. Not trading Wiseman or Kuminga in a deal for Simmons would be extremely opportune for the Dubs.
For now, none of these three trades are likely on the table, but if they become available, Golden State should take it in a heartbeat.
