NBA Trade Rumors: Ranking the 10 most likely star players to be moved in 2021

NBA Trade Rumors: Ranking the 10 big-name players that are most likely to be traded during the 2021-22 season. 

Many NBA fans are intrigued by the transaction more than the actual basketball. As we explore the “what if” concerning possible trades heading into the new season, we take a look at the 10 most likely star players that could be traded.

We begin our list with an honorable mention that seems like he’s probably going to be traded sooner rather than later. In fact, it may be a matter of when, not if, Ben Simmons is traded.

Honorable mention: Ben Simmons

There’s no surprise here and he’d probably be No. 1 on this list if he wasn’t an honorable mention. However, the prevailing thought is that he will be traded and soon, likely before the start of the season. Ideally, before training camp opens for the Philadelphia 76ers.

Simmons is still a really good player and there should be several teams interested if he’s indeed on the trade block. It’ll be interesting to see where he winds up and whether he can salvage his career with a restart on a new team.
