Ben Simmons is an enigmatic player to many. On the one hand, he has very clear flaws in the scoring and shooting department. On the other, he is a top-tier defender in the league, and his playmaking is also elite. We all know that Ben Simmons is a great player, but he just doesn't fit that well with a lot of teams.
Jake Fischer of Bleacher Report has recently reported the words of an Eastern Conference scout that stated that "there's really no ideal place" for Ben Simmons around the league. It seems as though his "unique style" is a factor in that.
There's no question that Ben Simmons has a very specific playstyle that must be catered to when building a roster. It's true that he had a really bad playoff series against the Atlanta Hawks. However, Ben Simmons is still worth a gamble, and perhaps we'll see a team go for him soon.
