The Pacers are willing to trade Malcolm Brogdon and Caris LeVert for Ben Simmons, per Zach Kendall.
Pacers get Ben Simmons
76ers get Malcolm Brogdon, Caris LeVert, and a lottery protected 2022 first round pick
Simmons and Sabonis doesn't seem like the most ideal duo, but the Pacers appear to be interested in pairing them. This is probably the best offer Philly will get for Simmons. Their defense takes a hit, but they become a lot more dynamic offensively with way more space to work with.

I think Pacers would need to flip Turner for a guard
Have Ben and Warren at the forward spots and Sabonis at center.

NBA16 agreed, there’s pretty much no way you could start Simmons, Sabonis, and Turner. As nice as Simmons and Turner would be defensively, there’d be no spacing.

pacers should only trade one of their two ball handlers in pursuit if simmons if they go this route. hence bringing in the 3rd team and moving one of their bigs while getting another player back.
