Why send Harden away? The Nets know he could jump out of contract this summer and go to the 76ers

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.
