Meeting between Rich Paul and 76ers management ends in stances unchanged

Philadelphia still continuing to expect Simmons to return to the floor this season

Agent for Ben Simmons – Klutch Sports CEO Rich Paul – met today with Sixers’ Daryl Morey and Elton Brand to discuss status of stalemate, reports ESPN’s Adrian Wojnarowski.

Stances are still unchanged: Simmons no closer to playing this season – and Sixers determined to bring back a significant player in a trade. Sixers continue to want Simmons to return to the floor, but there’s no movement on that front nor traction on a trade now. Trade deadline is Feb. 10
