Ben Simmons hasn’t played in an NBA game since the Philadelphia 76ers were eliminated from the playoffs last June. And as he apparently nears a return as the newest member of the Brooklyn Nets, some details have emerged about when that might be.
Unfortunately for Sixers faithful who might’ve hoped it would come Thursday in Philadelphia, it won’t…but they still may get an opportunity to see Simmons back at Wells Fargo Center.
According to Stadium’s Shams Charania, Simmons won’t play in Thursday’s game as he continues to recover from back soreness, but he is expected to make the trip and join his team on the bench.
