Kevin O’Connor from The Ringer reports that the San Antonio Spurs turned down the 76ers offer that would have sent Simmons to Texas. However, the asking price was too steep for the Spurs.

According to O’Connor, the 76ers wanted four first-round picks, three first-round pick swaps, and a young player in exchange.

Meanwhile, ESPN’s Adrian Wojnarowski reports that the 76ers will continue trying to find a new team for the 25-year-old Australian. Wojnarowski also adds that the Sixers asking price will remain high and all talks could continue into summer.

Last season, Simmons averaged 14.3 points, 7.2 rebounds, and 6.9 assists in 58 games.
