With the 76ers and Celtics looking to continue to impact the playoffs or even break out of the Eastern Conference, they both need to make a move before the trade deadline. Of those, 76 are teams with Joel Embiid, but they still need to push for a deal involving Ben Simmons, and there are a lot of tough players in the Celtic squad who can be put on the shelf.
So is there a possibility of a push trade between the 76ers and the Celtics? The advice given by the US media Brett Siegel is that the 76ers can promote a three-way deal with teams such as the Celtics and the Kings:
Celtics get: Darlon Fox, Terence Davis, 2022 first-round picks (from the 76ers, protected with the top 5 picks), 2024 first-round picks (swap rights, from the 76ers)
The 76ers got: Jaylen Brown, Juan Hernangomez
Kings get: Ben Simmons, Jaden Springer, 2023 first-round picks (swap rights, from 76ers)
It should be noted that if the Celtics want to push for trades, then Jaylen Brown is the player with the highest deal value in the team, after all, Jaylen Brown, who is in the sixth season of his career, has been able to play another All-Star level of data performance, which is why he should be put on the shelf.
In this deal, the Celtics need to give away chips with Jaylen Brown as the core, but they can get young backcourts like Daron Fox and players such as Terrance Davis, plus two future first-round draft picks (one of which is an exchange right), which is still a very good return for the Celtics.
As for the 76ers getting players like Brown and Hernan Gomez in the deal, both believe they can give Joel Embiid enough help. Ben Simmons would be sent to the Kings in the deal.
Overall, this will be a move that will benefit all three teams, of course, it is still difficult to promote a three-way heavy deal at this level.
