So, you’re probably wondering: why is Ben Simmons on the lead art for a story about a game between the Washington Wizards and the Brooklyn Nets?
Well, because the most interesting thing about this game is that there is a tiny chance this could be Ben Simmons’ first game of the season, if the Harden—for—Simons swap takes place by the deadline hours before tipoff.
Heck, this game even got bumped up to TNT in some part thanks to that (or not).
Other than that, we also don’t know who will suit up for the Wiz given that they have been reportedly dealing and wheeling with approximately 29 other teams.
