The summer news has arrived!
With LeBron’s blessing for his move to the Sixers, and the Clippers’ recent sanction.
Ben Simmons returns to the NBA with a new deal for 1 year and $3.6 million with the Sacramento Kings, ESPN reported.
The former No. 1 overall pick of the 2016 draft had recently been making headlines after joining the Australian national team’s training camp, where his high level of fitness stood out.
According to sources close to the situation, Simmons visited the Kings’ facilities this past Monday, where he underwent a rigorous medical examination, subsequently carried out a private workout and held a meeting with his coach and the team’s general manager.
His last NBA team was the Clippers in the 2024-25 season, where he averaged 2.9 points, 3.8 rebounds and 3.1 assists in 16.4 minutes per game.
