Ben Simmons Over at SAC

Man let me tell you something right now about the Ben Simmons situation in Sac Town. It is a wrap.

Look I am not even trying to hate on the brother but did you see the news? Popped his Achilles in practice. Practice! Bro is sitting out the whole 2026 2027 season.

Now look I get it. The Achilles thing is going around the league right now. Dame and Haliburton just missed a whole year with the same exact thing. But with Ben? Come on man. We all know the track record. If it is not the back it is the knee. If it is not the knee it is the foot. Now it is the Achilles. Ten major injuries since he got drafted in 2016! Ten! This is going to be the fourth full season he spends sitting on the bench in designer street clothes.

At a certain point you gotta ask is he a hooper or a professional rehabber? At 30 years old his whole career is just turning into one long comeback documentary. You cannot even call it a comeback anymore if that is all you do.

Sacramento took a flyer on him gave him that 2.4 million vet minimum prove it deal. And because of the CBA rules they gotta keep cutting that check while he is on the mend. Cool get your money Ben. I am not mad at that. But after this year? The Kings gotta cut the cord.

Listen to me Sacramento is trying to rebuild and get something real off the ground. You cannot build a culture or keep a rebuild moving when you are burning a roster spot on a guy who practically lives in the trainers room. He is a problem when he is 100 percent healthy but he is never healthy! When that contract expires the Kings need to shake his hand wish him the absolute best and change

the locks.

The ride is over.
