One possible reason is his looming free agency next offseason. NBC Sports’ Kurt Helin noted that part of the challenge in trading Simons is the uncertainty surrounding his contract situation.
Whether Simons remains in Boston or is moved before the deadline, all signs point to the point guard testing the free-agent market next summer.
Last season, Simons appeared in 70 games for the Portland Trail Blazers, averaging 19.3 points, 2.7 rebounds, and 4.8 assists while shooting 42.6% from the field and 36.3% from three-point range.
