Kings Eye Ben Simmons as Backup PG | Sacramento Kings News

With thin options like Payton and Payne, Simmons stands out for his defense, playmaking, and ability to run transition. Pair him with Murray and Hunter, and you’ve got a versatile, switchable defense. His scoring isn’t elite, but Sacramento’s offense can compensate — and pairing him with Monk might cover all bases. The real question? Can he rebuild his reputation after a year off? The Kings may offer just the right low-pressure fit.
