Charania presents the standoff as a a disagreement between the two sides over Simmons' mental health. Simmons' camp reportedly claims the Sixers are trying to force him to play despite his struggles with mental health, while the team apparently wants information from its mental health professionals that actually show Simmons' need for time off.
