Ben Simmons reportedly doesn't want to play with Joel Embiid anymore

Philadelphia 76ers point guard Ben Simmons reportedly believes his partnership with center Joel Embiid has "run its course," according to Sam Amick of The Athletic.

Simmons, who did not report to training camp Monday, reportedly believes their styles clash too much, according to Amick.

As he sees it, sources say, the organization’s choice to build its basketball ecosystem around Embiid’s style simply isn’t conducive to the way he needs to play. So while Embiid insisted to reporters on Monday that he wants Simmons back, this much is clear: The feeling is not mutual.
