Ben Simmons Fantasy Stats

Lauren Rosen of FanDuelTV reports that Los Angeles Clippers forward Ben Simmons (knee) is available for Friday's game against the Atlanta Hawks. He's been out the last seven games due to what the team is calling injury management on his left knee. Since being traded away from Brooklyn, Simmons has appeared in five contests, averaging 6.8 points, 5.2 rebounds, 5.0 assists, and 1.4 steals across 21.2 minutes per game. The 28-year-old hasn't seen game action since February 28th, so his minutes will likely be limited. Amir Coffey and Derrick Jones Jr. should still get a share of minutes. Neither one is recommended as a streaming option except for deep leagues.

Los Angeles Clippers forward Ben Simmons (knee) has a chance to return from his seven-game absence to face the Atlanta Hawks on Friday. He's been out due to what the team is calling injury management on his left knee. Since being traded away from Brooklyn, Simmons has appeared in five games and averages 6.8 points, 5.2 rebounds, 5.0 assists, and 1.4 steals across 21.2 minutes per game. If he remains sidelined, however, Amir Coffey and Derrick Jones Jr. should still see the bulk of the bench minutes. Neither one is strongly recommended as streaming options except for very deep leagues.

Los Angeles Clippers guard/forward Ben Simmons (knee) won't travel with the team for the upcoming three-game road trip. Simmons has missed the last five games and will sit out at least three more contests. When healthy, Simmons was actually a decent fantasy option for the Clippers, but it's unclear when he's going to play again. In the meantime, Amir Coffey and Derrick Jones Jr. should see increased roles in the rotation. Neither player is an ideal fantasy option, but they could offer some deep league value.

Los Angeles Clippers guard/forward Ben Simmons (knee) has been ruled out ahead of Friday's game against the New York Knicks. Simmons will now miss his fourth game in a row due to a left knee injury. Simmons was actually a decent streaming option when he was healthy, but now it's unclear when he'll get back on the floor. His next chance to play will be against the Sacramento Kings on Sunday. Both Amir Coffey and Derrick Jones Jr. should see increased roles in the rotation until Simmons returns. Jones is the better streaming choice between the two forwards right now.

Los Angeles Clippers guard/center Ben Simmons (knee) will remain out for Tuesday's tilt against the Phoenix Suns. He is forced to miss a second straight game due to a sore left knee. After building up some good momentum, Simmons has once again encountered health issues, and he may miss several games in quick succession as the Clippers head into a stretch of three games in four nights. With Simmons sidelined on Sunday against the Los Angeles Lakers, Nicolas Batum and Drew Eubanks took on larger roles in the rotation. However, neither player significantly impacts fantasy basketball.

Los Angeles Clippers guard Ben Simmons (knee) is ready to go ahead of Wednesday's game against the Chicago Bulls. Simmons appears ready to play again following a one-game absence due to a knee injury. He has been decent during his three appearances with the Clippers. Simmons isn't going to light up the box score, but he should be able to provide low-end fantasy value. He shouldn't be limited at all after only a one game absence, so fantasy managers can get him back into their lineups on Wednesday.

Los Angeles Clippers forward Ben Simmons (knee) will sit out of Monday's game against the Detroit Pistons for injury management on his left knee. The point-forward has appeared in three games since joining the Clippers but hasn't been able to play in back-to-backs. While he's returned solid fantasy value in deeper leagues, his health continues to hold him back the most. With Kawhi Leonard (foot) and Norman Powell (knee) both ruled out, Bogdan Bogdanovic and MarJon Beauchamp should see plenty of minutes in this contest. In their last game against the Indiana Pacers, Bogdanovic posted 11 points, two assists, one rebound, and one steal.

Los Angeles Clippers forward Ben Simmons (conditioning) is not listed on the injury report for Thursday's game against the Jazz, meaning he'll be available to make his debut with his new team. He finalized a contract buyout with the Nets on Friday after averaging 24.6 minutes in his 33 games this season and producing 6.2 points, 6.9 assists, 5.2 rebounds, and 0.9 steals per game. His role with the Clippers is uncertain but with Kawhi Leonard (rest) not playing, Simmons could get significant playing time on Thursday.

Los Angeles Clippers guard Ben Simmons (conditioning) has been ruled out ahead of Wednesday's game against the Memphis Grizzlies. Simmons recently joined the Clippers after finalizing a contract buyout with the Brooklyn Nets. It's unclear if the Clippers plan on having Simmons play at all before the All-Star break. Once active, Simmons figures to play a significant role in the Clippers rotation. His playmaking and defense should be enough to make him worth rostering in at least deep formats.

According to ESPN's Shams Charania, the Nets and guard/forward Ben Simmons have agreed to a contract buyout. The 28-year-old was at his best while a member of the 76ers. However, after he was traded to Brooklyn, his production declined significantly. Simmons has averaged 13.6 points, 7.6 rebounds, 7.4 assists, and 1.5 steals in 365 regular-season games throughout his career. Unfortunately, injuries and personal issues have caused him to miss plenty of time over the years. But now that he's a free agent, he'll likely draw interest from a number of teams around the National Basketball Association, even more so because of his versatility. Yet, it's hard to tell how impactful the former LSU Tiger will be from a fantasy standpoint until he inks a new deal. He'll also need to stay healthy.
