Nets star Ben Simmons will miss at least the next three games with what the team is calling a left lateral upper calf strain.
He will be reassessed after Sunday’s matchup against the Boston Celtics, after which the Nets have two off days before hosting the Charlotte Hornets the following Wednesday.
Simmons left Monday’s matchup against the Orlando Magic at the top of the second quarter with what the team called soreness in his left knee. It’s the same knee that endured swelling at the beginning of November. Simmons ultimately had fluid drained from the knee and missed three games before returning to the court.
