Brooklyn Nets guard, Ben Simmons and his management agency, the Klutch Sports Group have parted ways.

ESPN’s Ramona Shelburne took to Twitter to break the news. “Brooklyn Nets forward Ben Simmons and Klutch Sports have mutually decided to part ways, sources told ESPN,” she tweeted. “Simmons had been represented by Klutch since he came into the NBA as the No. 1 pick in 2016. The agency negotiated his five-year $177 million extension in 2019.”

Simmons was represented by Klutch since he was drafted as the No. 1 pick by the Philadelphia 76ers in 2016. The agency was also responsible for getting him the whopping five-year $177 million extensions in 2019 with the same franchise.

This development comes on the back of the torrid run Simmons is going through with the Brooklyn Nets. The Australian guard has been dealing with a knee issue that’s seen him miss the last 11 games for the Nets. 

With the latest news, there’s no telling who Simmons chooses to represent him next. For now, details about the parting remain scarce.


Jacque Vaughn Wants Ben Simmons In The Nets Fold As Soon As Possible

The Nets head coach Jacque Vaughn had Simmons’ back, saying he and the Nets were keen to have the underfire guard back in their fold as soon as possible.

The last few months have seen reports emerge that the Nets were looking to shut Simmons down for the remainder of the season, but Vaughn’s thoughts suggest that Brooklyn still believes in Simmons.

“When the back gets better and when the knee gets better then he’ll be with us. So we want that to happen as soon as possible, but we also want to take care of him and make sure that those two things are good. So if you want to say day by day, we can agree to day by day, but we’re going to take care of him and try to get him healthy. We want him back as soon as possible.”

Jacque Vaughn again poured cold water on the idea of shutting down Ben Simmons:

It’s been a slump for Simmons this season as he averages 6.9 points, 6.3 rebounds, and 6.1 assists from 42 games he’s played this season.

While Vaughn does want him back, there’s no clarity on what the Nets intend to do with Simmons next season. And while at it, it remains to be seen who represents the guard next.
