Tyronn Lue was pleased with what he saw from Ben Simmons tonight — things he won’t see from Simmons in Detroit since Simmons is out on zero days rest
“He can push the basketball, make a play, attack the basket, get to the free throw line” pic.x.com/5ptclS2Kd0 – 8:56 PM

Asked Ben Simmons how he is going to be able to work with Ivica Zubac and Drew Eubanks as a point guard
“I feel like we can get a lot of good looks off the pick-and-roll with me and Zu”
Also, Simmons echoed Zubac from Thursday about how Clippers will need to improve focus pic.x.com/ZeaGcRb8E6 – 8:36 PM

Ben Simmons says that practices have been good and that he is trying to watch film on top of the on-court work to catch up as much as possible, and being locked in with the Clippers medical staff pic.x.com/Evy1ZtcxZw – 8:31 PM

Ivica Zubac discussing how he and Ben Simmons can work together.
The Clippers were outscored by 12 points when Zubac and Simmons shared the floor tonight at Milwaukee, the worst two-man lineup the Clippers had with Simmons. It’s a work in progress. pic.x.com/GGZ702xhPt – 12:24 AM

Ben Simmons shared the floor with everyone in the rotation tonight, but he was only a positive +/- with Nicolas Batum (+3 in 11 minutes)
Sounds like Tyronn Lue is happy with defense when Simmons is out there, as well as the pace. But offense needs “something to hang our hat on” pic.x.com/lwvd4sn3CV – 12:22 AM

Law Murray: Tyronn Lue said tonight that it will take point center Ben Simmons 8-10 games to see how T Lue wants to use him and how he will fit everyone else. So that will go into the 2nd weekend of March. I also asked Tyronn Lue if he would let Ben Simmons shoot outside the paint… pic.x.com/lHQqVLelUz -via Twitter @LawMurrayTheNU / February 20, 2025
Ben Simmons signed with the Los Angeles Clippers following his buyout agreement with the Brooklyn Nets. Simmons also received interest from the Cleveland Cavaliers and Houston Rockets. Jake Fischer reports that the Philadelphia 76ers also had some level of interest in signing Simmons. The Sixers traded Simmons at the 2022 trade deadline for James Harden. Simmons had a prolonged holdout in hopes of a trade from the Sixers that season following a disappointing second round series against the Atlanta Hawks in the 2021 playoffs. …. “I think Philadelphia sniffed around on Ben Simmons,” said Fischer on his NBA Insider Notebook. “I really do.” -via RealGM / February 14, 2025
