The Los Angeles Clippers’ player Ben Simmons had a rough offseason this summer. The 29-year-old remains unsigned and reportedly turned down a short-term offer from the New York Knicks. However, several teams emerged as a potential landing spot for the forward player, but fans are making noise about something different with his future.
Simmons began his journey with the Philadelphia 76ers in 2016 and remained with the franchise for a prolonged period. He signed a one-year contract with the Clippers this summer, and his future in the league faces uncertainty. However, the Australian League wants him back home, while fans are trolling his status and linking him to a potential move to China.
Simmons wants to contribute to the league, and he has no plans for retirement at this time. So, if any deal doesn’t land, it could bring a major concern to his journey, as he will be a free agent next year with no active deal in hand.
Fans Criticized Ben Simmons’ Unclear Status In The League
Social media buzzed with the same opinion, as many trolled Simmons to play in China.
“No team in the US, China or Europe is picking up this scrub. He’ll be a middle school PE teacher eventually,” a fan wrote.
“Why don’t you ask China that question,” one wondered.
“China,” a user noted.
“China or some overseas team,” one commented.
“Sharks in Shanghai,” someone added.
“Shanghai Sharks could use him,” another remarked.
“Trade him to the Guang-Dong Sharks for Victor Oladipo,” a fan noted.
“He’s going to the NBL or retiring,” one posted.
The three-time All-Star brings elite defense and passing, which could help any team boost its performance on the court. However, it’s up to time and destiny whether he lands successfully in any core or chooses to retire early.
