According to previous reports, Simmons' agent Rich Paul met with the 76ers management, and Woj disclosed the details of the meeting.
The 76ers said the team would not trade Simmons unless the rewards of the Simmons trade would put the team in the position of a title race.
Rich Paul said Simmons' current state of mind still prevents him from playing and that he still wants to seek a trade to leave Philadelphia.
The 76ers are still seeking to trade Simmons for the league's top 25 players, but haven't been able to get a similar offer so far, Mingji said. Some teams even said that the 76ers have a tendency to rise in the asking price of Simmons.
