Simmons has previously said he hopes to represent the Nets in a game against Philadelphia, but according to NBA fame Woshen, this game will not be Simmons' Nets debut.
"Ben Simmons, he's not coming back this week," Waugh said, "and it's March 11 for 12 days, when the whole league is watching the Game of Philadelphia and the Nets." But what I do know is this: Simmons won't make his Nets debut in this game. ”
"They (the Nets) aren't going to make this game his first game. So, he either came back before that game or just after that game. But he will come back after Durant. ”
Before the All-Star, Philadelphia traded with the Nets, with Harden joining Philadelphia and Simmons joining the Nets. Now, Harden and Embiid have teamed up, and Durant, Irving and Simmons are teammates.
After the transaction, countless people are looking forward to the first meeting between the two teams after the transaction. Although Simmons has not played this season, he is also looking forward to playing for the Nets. And if he can make a comeback next week, before the Philadelphia Nets, then he can indeed represent the Nets in the game against Philadelphia. But instead, Simmons couldn't play against Philadelphia.
But now, what is certain is that the Nets' Philadelphia game won't be Simmons' debut. It is not difficult for the Nets to understand this arrangement, after all, Simmons has not played this season, and if he plays a strong opponent like Philadelphia in the first game of his return, it is not conducive to Simmons to find feelings, and may even cause him to be injured because of the emotional problems of the game.
For the Nets, it is a good thing that Simmons can return this season, and although Simmons can't shoot, his all-round skills will still help the Nets.
