People in Philly are talking about Kyrie for Fultz, Saric, and 1st round pick. I'm actually shocked that any Philly fans would support that since: (a) Kyrie does not play defense and Brett Brown's system requires at least some defensive ability/effort; (b) Fultz, Saric, and the 1st round pick all line up with the 76ers time line for being a contender -- which is probably 2-4 years down the road; (c) Kyrie also lines up with their timeline, except he's an unrestricted free agent in 2 years and could very well leave them empty handed; (d) Kyrie has not expressed any interest in coming to Philly; and (e) Kyrie said he doesn't want to play with LeBron any more and Simmons is supposed to be a point forward in the mold of LeBron.
Either way, I'd consider that an overpay for Kyrie. Hopefully Bryan Colangelo is not stupid enough to try to land Kyrie unless it involves players not named Simmons, Embiid, or Fultz.
