Live Bar Feb. 11 (Live Bar) According to successive reports by Shams and Woj, the Nets and the 76ers have reached a deal with Harden Simmons as the main body.
The specific plan is: the Nets send Harden and Millsap in exchange for Ben Simmons, Seth Curry, Drummond, an unprotected 2022 first-round pick and a protected 2027 first-round pick.
Woj then spoke about why the Nets made the deal, saying the Nets knew Harden could jump out of his contract this summer to become a free agent before joining the 76ers.
According to the News of the New York Post Brian Lewis yesterday, Harden rejected the 3-year, $161 million early contract extension given by the Nets before the season.
