The Nets' performance this season is still quite disappointing, after a lot of experience, and finally through the playoffs to reach the playoffs, but was swept out by the Celtics 4-0, ending the season early. And today, the Nets have another breaking news, Simmons, who has not played in a season, will undergo surgery tomorrow.
The Nets officially updated Simmons' injury, and after consultation with several medical experts, it was decided that Simmons would undergo a minimally invasive discectomy tomorrow to treat the back injury.
It is reported that this surgery is to alleviate the pain caused by Simmons' disc herniation, and then The Famous Woj added that Simmons needs 3-4 months to recover and is expected to return before the team's training camp in the new season.
The news was still quite sudden, after all, after trading to join the Nets, the team has been looking forward to his early return. But in the end, there was a situation on his back, and even then the Nets were waiting, especially in the first round of the playoffs, the Nets were going to announce his comeback. In the end, Simmons' back pain recurred, or did not come back, and finally the Nets were swept out, and Simmons did not play a single game this season.
When he did not play in the playoffs, he was also unanimously ridiculed by the outside world, believing that he was not competitive. Judging from the surgery, Simmons' back injury was real and not fake. I also hope that this operation can treat his back injury well, but it can no longer affect the next season.
Now, the Nets' original trade was really a big loss, even if Harden fell again, it was better than Simmons could not play. Harden is currently following the 76ers to the semifinals, and the Nets have already returned home early.
