Simmons Could Return to NBA with Kings | Philadelphia 76ers News

Ben Simmons could be making a surprise NBA comeback — possibly with the Sacramento Kings, who are reportedly eyeing him as a veteran leader to fill their final roster spot after Russell Westbrook’s retirement. With Simmons’ entire 2023-24 season off, GM Scott Perry is reportedly in Florida to evaluate his current form. Once a Rookie of the Year and three-time All-Star known for defense and triple-doubles, Simmons’ path has been rocky since his controversial exit from Philly, including injuries and short stints with the Nets and Clippers. While rejoining the Sixers or Heat seems unlikely, the Kings may offer his best shot at returning to the league — especially as Cam Payne also remains a rumored fit. This offseason, Simmons’ potential return is one of the wildest storylines in basketball. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
