According to NBA Insider Marc Stein, the Boston Celtics are amongst the teams interested in former All-NBA forward Ben Simmons.
“League sources say that the Suns have also had some recent dialogue with former All-Star Ben Simmons, who I'm told has drawn interest since free agency began from Boston, New York and Sacramento,” Stein wrote in a recent edition of his The Stein Line.
Celtics fans likely aren’t moved by the team’s connection to Simmons. In the North End, the 2016 No. 1 overall pick has never been thought of as great, even during the height of his career with the Philadelphia 76ers.
