NBA veteran Ben Simmons is looking to finalize his decision about where he will go next, either the Knicks or the Celtics.

Ben Simmons to Celtics Potentially Dead After Decision by NBA Free Agent originally appeared on Athlon Sports.

Simmons would help plug a couple of gaps within the Celtics rotation. He could ease the loss of Jrue Holiday due to his defensive versatility, and he could help eat some of the playmaking load Jayson Tatum was forced to vacate due to an Achilles tendon injury.
