According to a report released by NBA celebrity Shams, according to people familiar with the matter, there are currently as many as 7 teams in the league interested in getting Simmons, including the Lakers, Knicks, Trail Blazers, Cavaliers, Pacers, Timberwolves and Kings. The Philadelphia 76ers' asking price hasn't changed, and that's the need to get an All-Star player and multiple first-round picks in the trading chips, and simmons can be traded as long as they are satisfied.

In fact, since the offseason, the Philadelphia 76ers have been looking for the best solution for a Simmons trade, but unfortunately they have not been able to do so. During this period, the team management also tried to persuade Simmons to let him return to the game, but to little effect, Simmons is currently in the Philadelphia 76ers, but refused to play for the team for various reasons, and the two sides parted ways early became inevitable.

According to reporter The Athletic, the Lakers want to get Simmons, so Westbrook will become an important trading chip, and the possibility is also increasing. For the current Lakers, The roles of Westbrook and Simmons are similar, and Simmons' outside shooting ability is not even as good as Westbrook. But Simmons is younger and more impactful, similar to the Warriors' dreamer Green as an organizational forward. It's also worth mentioning that Simmons' agent is Rich Paul, so this trade is possible.
