Ben Simmons is set to make his Sacramento Kings preseason debut against the Golden State Warriors, returning to an NBA court for the first time since the 2024-25 season after missing the Kings’ first two preseason games. Sacramento hopes the former All-Star can contribute as a playmaker and versatile defender, but his fitness and role remain uncertain after an extended absence and several injury-plagued seasons. The matchup also offers Simmons a chance to show the Warriors, who reportedly considered bringing him to training camp, what he could bring to a team.

Lakers List Luka Doncic Questionable Against Pistons

The Lakers listed Luka Doncic as questionable for Sunday’s game against the Detroit Pistons because of lower-back tightness, a day after he scored a season-high 53 points against Portland. If he cannot play, Austin Reaves is expected to shoulder more of the offense, with Quentin Grimes and Collin Sexton also likely to take on larger roles.
