This winter, Ben Simmons left the Philadelphia 76ers on very bad terms to join the Brooklyn Nets. However, his return to the NBA courts could be delayed until next season due to back problems.
Since the end of the playoffs last season, Ben Simmons has not appeared on a court of NBA. Not feeling supported by Philadelphia 76ers when a shower of criticism fell on him, the Australian playmaker refused to wear his team’s jersey, not hesitating to force his departure and use mental health problems as an excuse to avoid playing . So this winter, 76ers separated from Ben Simmons in an exchange including James Harden. Now at the Brooklyn Nets, the 25-year-old would be more fit to play. However, his return to the courts could be delayed due to back problems.
“It is possible to imagine him coming back for the playoffs, but it is likely that we will not see him again”
« I don’t think we’ll see it before the end of the season. The longer he stays away from the field, the more likely he is until the end. As long as the basic problem is not resolved, we will not see it. Nothing indicates otherwise. I’m expecting him to need a cortisone shot in his spine and then surgery in the offseason. “said the former doctor of the Magic d’Orlandothe doctor Rahul Shahspine, back and neck specialist, in an interview with New York Post and reported by Basket Session. For the doctor Armin Tehranywho assisted the medical staff of the Jetsfrom Rangers and Islanders on NFL and NHLthe conclusion is quite similar: It is possible to imagine him coming back for the playoffs, but it is likely that we will not see him again. The difficulty with back problems is that they can become chronic and lead to complications. » A return of Ben Simmons this season therefore seems strongly compromised.
