On September 16, 29-year-old No. 1 pick Ron Ben Simmons was caught in rumors of retirement. In response, Simmons responded positively to the fans and said bluntly: He will not retire.
The five-year, $170 million contract signed by Simmons in 2019 officially expired this summer, becoming a free agent, but this year's offseason is almost over. Simmons, 29, has not signed any team. Like in previous offseasons, Simmons often came to the beach to fish and enjoy holidays.
Yesterday, Simmons posted photos of himself on social media on vacation, appeared shirtless, sat in a luxury car to browse his phone, and fished at the beach, and still had a lot of fun.
Recently, many American reporters said that Simmons' career may be over. Teague complained that Simmons' injury was serious and could not run at all; Simmons refused the Knicks' one-year basic salary contract, and his agent Bernie Lee terminated the contract.
Evan Sidery previously reported that no team is interested in signing Simmons. After parting ways with his agent, he is now the agent himself; Simmons may not have found a new team at the beginning of the new season, and retirement may become a tangible possibility.
Now Simmons himself has personally denied the rumors, and some fans asked: Brother, have you retired? Simmons responded positively: No.
After a while, the training camp for the new season of the NBA will begin, and there is more than a month before the start of the new season; so far in his career, Simmons has played for the 76ers, the Nets and the Clippers, and has played in the NBA for 7 seasons, playing in a total of 383 games, averaging 31.1 minutes per game, and he has scored 13.1 points, 7.4 rebounds, 7.2 assists and 1.5 steals. He has been selected as the All-Star three times, 2 best defense first team, 1 best three team, and 1 steal king.
Can Simmons return to the NBA in 2016? Let's wait and see.
