On February 27, Beijing time, the NBA regular season continued to unfold, and the Nets will challenge the defending champion Bucks on the road. In this game, the Nets Durant, Simmons and Harris were still unable to play, but before the game, the team suffered a blow, and Simmons, who was actively training, suffered back pain, which also made his comeback continue to postpone.
According to fameDon Shams, basketball star Ben Simmons suffered back pain while returning to play and needed to strengthen muscles in the area for a while before he could continue his recovery process.
This also caught the Nets a bit off guard, and it can also be seen from this that Simmons has not actively trained in the past when he has not played. As can be seen from the fact that Irving can return to the game soon, Irving did not have such a situation at that time, and the Nets currently have no specific recovery schedule for Bency, so they can only continue to wait.
In the case of Simmons, in the pre-game interview, head coach Nash also confirmed the news, and he was not worried at all, thinking that it was not an injury, but something that would happen during his recovery. Nash really does not pay any attention to these small injuries, after all, he has experienced a lot of injuries during his coaching of the Nets, otherwise the big three of Durant + Harden + Irving would not have worked together for more than 16 games in a season, this time I only hope that the big three of Durant + Irving + Simmons can appear more in the game.
Simmons' sudden injury also caught the Nets a little off guard, but fortunately, Durant, another core of the team, has a new injury dynamic, and it is getting closer and closer to a comeback. Head coach Nash revealed that Durant did not have any accidents after the second high-intensity training session, and as long as he completed another training session, he could return to the game.
Due to a knee injury, Durant has missed the past 18 games, the team has only won 4 wins and 14 losses, from the first place in the East directly to the eighth, this gap has also changed the team lineup, Harden became Simmons, Curry Jr. and Drummond. It depends on whether Durant can lead the Nets out of the quagmire after his return.
