Simmons to Wizards for Cash

Looking back at the 2019 NBA draft day trade where the Sixers GM Elton Brand traded Jonathon Simmons and pick No. 42 to the Washington Wizards for cash considerations, a team source confirms to NBC Sports Philadelphia.  This move will save up to $5.7 million on the cap for next year.

Simmons has become somewhat of an under performing journey man since leaving San Antonio. With Career averages of 8.3ppg on 44% from the field. Now it is up to the Wizards if they are going to try to trade him or keep him on their roster. He doesn’t exactly fit their timeline but could be a serviceable role-player for a young squad.
