Another Ben Simmons update: He’s playing 4-on-4

The Ben Simmons news cycle never sleeps. He could be shooting a basketball one day, dunking another, and “ramping up” the next. This time, Simmons is playing four-on-four against his Brooklyn Nets teammates in practice.

Nash said Simmons won’t play in game two but would not guess beyond that. Noted it’s a nine month absence

A return in Game 2 is off the table, but it feels like Simmons is trending in the right direction. There have been encouraging reports surfacing as of late, but it’s almost impossible to separate fact from fiction.
