NextImg:Exclusive | Knicks one of two teams interested in Ben Simmons — if he wants to keep playing

Ben Simmons has generated interest from the Knicks and another team but is also questioning whether he even wants to continue playing in the NBA next season, The Post has learned.

The former All-Star and Rookie of the Year, who has struggled recently with injuries and handling the public pressures of the league, is an option for the Knicks because of his upside as an elite defender and athlete to fill their backup point guard spot, a league source said.

However, Simmons, who has accumulated DNPs the past few seasons, and over $200 million in career earnings, is sending a message that he isn’t sure “if he wants to continue,” another source added.

Basically, for Simmons, at still just 29 years old, it’s hard to see a path forward in the NBA if he were to decline two potential opportunities as a free agent.
