76ers guard Danny Green did not hold back in his opinion Wednesday on whether or not Ben Simmons will play against Philadelphia as a member of the Nets on March 10.
Simmons has not played in a game this season thus far, citing mental health concerns. His first game with the Nets has yet to be determined. There has been speculation that Simmons will be ready to play before visiting his former team in March, but Green thinks that is unlikely.
“Now will we shake hands to start? Probably not,” Green said on his podcast “Inside the Green Room. “First, I'd be highly surprised if he even plays in that game. I don't know where his health is mentally, physically, I know he had other issues, and we all know he does not like to play in Philly. If he does play in that game, I'd be highly surprised.”
