The Cleveland Cavaliers and the Houston Rockets are potential landing spots for Ben Simmons if his contract gets bought out by the Brooklyn Nets, according

Thursday’s trade deadline came and went, and the Nets were silent. There were rumblings that veterans such as Cam Johnson, Nic Claxton and Day’Ron Sharpe could be on the move, but no deals were made,

With the NBA trade deadline passed, it’s now on to the buyout market. Ben Simmons could very well be on it. The Nets have been speaking with Simmons about a potential buyout, and the former All-Star is expected to have robust options to pick from if an agreement is reached and he becomes a free agent.
