Former NBA Clippers point guard Ben Simmons may be unemployed

According to the exposure of the US media: Former NBA Clippers guard Ben Simmons is still unattended in the offseason trading market and has not received any offer contracts. This 2016 draft No. 1 pick who was once known as a genius boy may be in a state of no ball. It was rumored that the Celtics and the Knicks wanted him to play as a substitute point guard, but in the end it was a thunder and a small rainfall, and the bamboo basket was useless!

Media analysis: The reason why Ben Simmons still cannot find any basic salary contract during the offseason is that his personal professional level has declined significantly in recent seasons, which has completely affected his attractiveness in the trading market; on the other hand, 41 rookie players in the 2025 draft market have been selected and have obtained first-round contracts and second-round contracts, which has replaced veteran contract opportunities for players like Ben Simmons. Now, except for the Warriors, there is no signing noise during the offseason, almost all teams in the other league have filled the 15-man roster. If Ben Simmons does not get a contract before the start of the regular season of the new season, it is likely that he will continue to look for opportunities to play after the next trading deadline after the All-Star!

Ben Simmons is the No. 1 pick in the 2016 draft and plays as a point guard. He played for the Nets and the Clippers in the 2024-2025 season. He played in a total of 24 games in the regular season, averaging 22.0 minutes per game, scoring 5.0 points + 4.7 rebounds + 5.6 assists. The data seems to be acceptable, but the offense and defense completely lose their competitiveness!
