The Ben Simmons drama in Philly is ramping back up again.
According to Shams Charania of The Athletic, Simmons and the Philadelphia 76ers are butting heads on how Simmons is communicating his mental health progress to the team.
The Sixers had been "testing the validity of Simmons’ pursuit of mental health assistance," since he reportedly didn't give the team updates on his progress, but now Simmons has agreed to meet with a team-recommended specialist to discuss mental health concerns, per ESPN's Adrian Wojnarowski.
Charania also reported that Sixers president of basketball operations Daryl Morey has had conversations with the Boston Celtics about a Simmons trade, and a big name has already come up: Jaylen Brown.
