Former Philadelphia 76ers star Ben Simmons has slammed the organisation for 'not helping' when he was at a low point mentally.
Simmons is now a member of the Brooklyn Nets after being traded in February 2022, although due to an injury sustained in his back he is yet to make a single NBA appearance. The Australian asked to be traded at the end of the 2020/21 season, did not feature in their following pre-season, and even put his Philadelphia home on the market.
However, he was not allowed to leave, and Simmons was repeatedly fined for missing games until he revealed that it was due to him struggling mentally. Simmons has now finally spoken out about his dramatic final season in Philadelphia, and has called out the 76ers for 'not helping'.
