Simons arrives as a primary scoring option in Boston after the Holiday deal, bringing shot creation and a change-of-pace guard presence that can alleviate pressure on the wings and off-ball movement, while his efficiency will be a key variable in Boston’s offensive balance.

Simons is tied to Celtics trade rumors; his high-scoring bursts could be a central piece in any deal, with upside for fantasy if he lands in a more favorable system.

Simons’ expiring deal and uncertain role in Boston’s reshaped lineup create a high-variance scenario. His volume shooting could be valuable if he secures a stable role, but FG% and consistency risk hold him back from safer late-round appeal.

Simons is framed as a potential top scorer if he were to join Boston, creating a hypothetical offensive upgrade and reshaping usage for Brown and White. His shot-creation ability would alter Celtics’ ceiling but is contingent on roster moves.

Simons is the candidate to pair with White in a high-usage backcourt scenario. His scoring volume, 3-point shooting, and shot creation will heavily influence Celtics backcourt dynamics if he slides into the lineup. Fantasy managers should monitor how his scoring load shifts with a potentially different Celtics rotation,
