Sports Take: Ben Simmons has burned his bridge with Philadelphia 76ers

By Michael Haag | Sports Writer

Philadelphia 76ers All-Star guard Ben Simmons has remained atop headlines in recent weeks, and even more so in the last few days. Due to the actions from Simmons in a recent 76ers team practice debacle, people are bashing him all over social media. There is a fairly consistent belief that he is in the wrong, which I am not debating. What I do think, however, is that we will no longer see Simmons in a Philadelphia jersey at all.

According to ESPN’s Malika Andrews, Simmons has been suspended for the season opener due to “detrimental conduct” to the team.
