IMO Simmons would be a great buyout signing.  How much, however, do you think there’s an overlap with Naji?

Simmons is for all purposes a center at this point in his career that can handle the ball and facilitate. He’s a zero on offense. Even worse, teams actively leave him open to double others. 

As a buyout guy the talent kind of outweighs the cost, but given his lack of drive, lack of availability, and really lack of any offensive game, it’s hard to see how he can fit on this roster.

Bruce Brown, Lonzo, heck even Bojan would make more sense now than Simmons. One thing Simmons has over all of these guys is that he could still defend whenever his back is feeling up to it.
