Sixers' Nick Nurse comments on Anfernee Simons' signing in free agency

Philadelphia 76ers coach Nick Nurse spoke about the addition of Anfernee Simons following free agency. The team, led by President of Basketball Operations Mike Gansey, has made multiple moves, including signing Dean Wade and Ariel Hukporti, alongside Simons. Nurse highlighted Simons as a crucial ball-handler and scorer off the bench, capable of easing the workload for Tyrese Maxey and VJ Edgecombe. Despite the concern about the team's size, Nurse expressed excitement for the increased speed and athleticism Simons brings to the roster. Simons averaged 14.3 points and shot 38.5% from three-point range last season.
