Bobby Marks: If Ben Simmons was a free agent this offseason, he’d get the minimum because he’s not reliable
Bobby Marks: If Ben Simmons was a free agent this offseason, he’d get the minimum because he’s not reliable. That’s just the reality of it. What team out there, unless you’re going to sign him and put an injury protection clause in there that protects every part of his body, what team would go out there? I thought he was pretty good in the games he played this year, but since 2020-21, he hasn’t played.

Ben Simmons’ agent, Bernie Lee, said his client is “in the home stretch” of his recovery.
However, Lee said after Simmons’ diagnosis that the injury was a “day-to-day evaluation” and “definitely should be on the shorter side.” That was two months ago. clutchpoints.com/nets-news-ben-… – 6:11 PM

Ben Simmons has been participating in practice portions w/ the #Nets in Paris. He didn’t offer a timetable for his return to play but told the assembled media present: “It’s good. I’m getting there. Just progressing every day, so I’ll be back soon.” #NBA

“Ben had an MRI in the last couple of days, and it’s shown us that he’s experiencing some nerve irritation issues on the lower left side of his body, which is going to cause him to miss to some time as he rehabs and builds himself back from that,” Lee told The Post. “He’s not experiencing anything similar to what he’s gone through in the past or what he went through last year, and this is something that the expectation is that with the proper kind of rehab he’ll be able to resume his season in a short period of time without any issue.” -via New York Post / January 10, 2024
“It definitely should be on the shorter side of things. It’s really a day-to-day kind of evaluation situation,” Lee told The Post. “Really what has to happen is the area has to calm down. Once it calms down, then there’s a period of reactivity that’s built into things. And then it’s how his body responds to that, and getting him back into obviously game shape and all those kinds of things. -via New York Post / January 10, 2024
