According to NBA reporter Jake Weinbach, Ben Simmons is the last veteran's favorite candidate for the Knicks' minimum salary contract.
Jake Weinbach believes that Ben Simmons can bring value in New York and he can be a secondary ball holder and an all-round defender. The former No. 1 pick can at least become a reliable in-depth player for the Knicks.
Ben Simmons' previous five-year, $177 million maximum salary contract signed with the 76ers has expired, and he is now a full free agent. Previously, famous reporter Stein reported that since the free market opened, Ben Simmons has attracted the interest of the Celtics, the Knicks and the Kings. The Suns also had some contact with the former All-Star player, league sources said.
During the regular season last season, Ben Simmons played a total of 51 games for the Nets and the Clippers, averaging 5.0 points, 4.7 rebounds, 5.6 assists per game, and a shooting percentage of 52.0%.
