The Golden State Warriors may have a chance to sign former All-Star Ben Simmons from the Brooklyn Nets. Reports suggest Simmons could seek a buyout to join a playoff team, although the Nets currently oppose this move. Simmons has struggled to regain his All-Star form but still averages 7.1 assists and 5.2 rebounds in limited minutes. If he becomes available, the Warriors could sign him to a low-cost deal, potentially revitalizing his performance. In the Warriors' system, Simmons could play multiple roles, enhancing their defense and providing depth. His fit alongside Draymond Green could help him return to form while adding size and athleticism to the team.
