Anfernee Simons Fantasy Stats

According to NBA insider Jake Fischer, Boston Celtics guard Anfernee Simons "is a possible re-trade candidate." The 26-year-old, who has one season left on his current deal, was recently acquired from the Portland Trail Blazers in a swap for Jrue Holiday. The Celtics have fielded calls for Derrick White and Jaylen Brown. However, Simons may be the favorite to be moved, especially with the C's looking to cut costs heading into the 2025 campaign. Simons emerged as a borderline All-Star in the last few years, most recently averaging 19.3 points and 4.8 assists in 70 appearances in 2024. It could be difficult for him to remain as productive in Boston, although his fantasy value will improve if he's traded to a team where he'll receive more scoring opportunities.

The Boston Celtics have acquired guard Anfernee Simons and two second-round draft picks from the Portland Trail Blazers in exchange for guard Jrue Holiday. Simons is on the move after spending his entire seven-year NBA career in Portland. He will be on an expiring $27.7 million contract next season. The 26-year-old has been one of Portland's top scorers in recent years and could continue to fill a similar role in Boston, with Jayson Tatum (Achilles) sidelined. As a trigger-happy three-point shooter, Simons appears to be a good fit for Boston's offense, having averaged 8.5 attempts beyond the arc this season. Simons shot 36.3 percent from deep and notched 19.3 points with 4.8 assists.

Portland Trail Blazers guard Anfernee Simons (forearm) is at risk of missing a fifth consecutive game, as the team lists him as questionable for Wednesday's contest against the Utah Jazz. Portland's top scorer has landed on the shelf with a right forearm contusion. Simons has joined Scoot Henderson (concussion) on the sidelines, leaving the Trail Blazers' backcourt shorthanded. Due to the injury situation, Dalano Banton has made four consecutive starts, scoring at least 20 points in each of the last three. With neither Deandre Ayton (calf) nor Jerami Grant (knee) in the lineup on Wednesday, and Deni Avdija (thumb) potentially remaining out, Banton must carry the offensive load again alongside Shaedon Sharpe and Toumani Camara.

Portland Trail Blazers guard Anfernee Simons (forearm) remains out for Sunday's matchup with the Spurs. In addition to Simons, Deni Avdija (thumb), Jerami Grant (knee), Deandre Ayton (calf), and Scoot Henderson (concussion) are also sidelined. As a result, Toumani Camara (ankle), who is available, Dalano Banton, and Shaedon Sharpe are the favorites to lead the way offensively. On the other hand, Jabari Walker, Matisse Thybulle, and Kris Murray have upside for the DFS managers looking for value.

Portland Trail Blazers guard Anfernee Simons (forearm) is listed as questionable on the injury report ahead of Thursday's encounter with the Toronto Raptors. A contusion on his right forearm might sideline Simons for a second consecutive game. With Scoot Henderson (concussion) also on the shelf, Dalano Banton was promoted to the first unit Tuesday night against the Atlanta Hawks. He produced a solid line in the game with 11 points, seven rebounds, five assists, and four blocks. It appears that Banton may have a large role to play again on Thursday against his hometown team.

Portland Trail Blazers guard Anfernee Simons (forearm) won't play on Tuesday against Atlanta. He has been dealing with a forearm injury of late, although he was able to play in Sunday's loss to the Knicks, finishing with 15 points, four assists, and two steals. However, with Simons and Scoot Henderson (concussion) ruled out, Dalano Banton will get the start, giving him plenty of upside for fantasy managers. Shaedon Sharpe, Toumani Camara, and Deni Avdija are also in line for more scoring opportunities, especially with Jerami Grant (knee) also unable to suit up.

Portland Trail Blazers guard Anfernee Simons (forearm) is listed on the injury report on Thursday with a questionable tag, meaning he may have to sit out a meeting with the Atlanta Hawks. The talented scorer has been dealing with a right forearm injury for some time. He was also listed as questionable ahead of Sunday's matchup against the New York Knicks but ended up playing 35 minutes as a starter in that game. However, it seems that the injury to his shooting hand affected him against the Knicks, as Simons made only five of his 20 field-goal attempts during a 15-point performance. Scoot Henderson (concussion) also has health concerns, so the Trail Blazers backcourt may need to get more out of Dalano Banton going forward.

Portland Trail Blazers guard Anfernee Simons (forearm) will play on Sunday versus the Knicks. He was on the Injury report due to forearm soreness, so fantasy managers had a feeling he'd be good to go for this one. While his absence likely would have resulted in a start for Dalano Banton, the latter could remain involved with Scoot Henderson (concussion) sidelined.

Portland Trail Blazers guard Anfernee Simons (forearm) is questionable for Sunday's matchup with the New York Knicks. The Trail Blazers likely aren't going anywhere near the postseason in any capacity, so it's hard to gauge just how severe his injury is. With that said, Simons' absence could surely open the door for added production from Shaedon Sharpe and Deni Avdija. Scoot Henderson's (concussion) absence should also mean Dalano Banton could see some meaningful work, even more so if Jerami Grant (knee) remains out.

Portland Trail Blazers guard Anfernee Simons (illness) is listed as questionable heading into Friday's game against the Denver Nuggets. It's worth noting that center Donovan Clingan is also dealing with an illness and has been ruled out for this game. It could be something going around the locker room, so more players might be late additions to the injury report. If he sits, Scoot Henderson figures to do more of the ball handling which would increase his fantasy value. Fantasy managers will need to check back closer to tip-off.
