Ben Simmons is turning the page to a new chapter in his basketball journey. After agreeing to a buyout with the Brooklyn Nets, ending a disappointing three-year tenure, the three-time All-Star will make a playoff push with the Los Angeles Clippers during the second half of this season.

The Los Angeles Clippers have signed Ben Simmons, adding a former No. 1 overall pick who struggled to stay healthy and productive during 2 1/2 seasons with the Brooklyn Nets.

The Brooklyn Nets bought out veteran point guard Ben Simmons, allowing him to hit free agency, and the Clippers took a chance on him. Simmons, a three-time All-Star, has faced many injury concerns throughout his nine-year NBA career but is expected to add some much-needed versatility to the Clippers' lineup.
