Ben Simmons is officially back in the NBA after agreeing to a one-year deal with the Sacramento Kings.
The former No. 1 overall pick and three-time All-Star returns after sitting out the entire 2025-26 season. The agreement is reportedly worth $3.5 million, giving Simmons an opportunity to restart his career in Sacramento.
Simmons brings considerable experience to a Kings team looking for additional playmaking and defensive versatility. His ability to handle the ball, defend multiple positions and create opportunities for teammates could make him an intriguing addition if he can rediscover his best form.
The move also represents an important opportunity for Simmons personally. After an extended absence from the league, Sacramento provides a fresh environment and a chance to demonstrate that he can still contribute at NBA level.
The 2026-27 season could therefore become a major turning point in Simmons' career.
