Ben Simmons Reportedly Declined Knicks' Contract Offer
According to NBA insider Marc Stein, free-agent utility man Ben Simmons reportedly declined a contract offer from the Knicks. It's unknown how much it would take for Simmons to join a team. However, New York can't go higher than a veteran's minimum, so it's safe to say the three-time All-Star is looking for more than that. He ended last season by logging 18 games for the Los Angeles Clippers, although he averaged only 2.9 points, 3.8 rebounds, and 3.1 assists, all career-lows. There was another report from Stefan Bondy of the New York Post suggesting Simmons has pondered retirement. With that said, even if the 2016 No. 1 overall pick signs with a team during the 2025 campaign, he doesn't have much to offer, considering his shooting percentages are far from great. Simmons also has an extensive injury history, which won't help him find a spot on any fantasy roster.
