NBA News: Ben Simmons could even be in game 3 against Boston Celtics Nets

The comeback of Ben Simmons is approaching, presumably the Australian will still intervene in the series against the Boston Celtics.

As Adrian Wojnarovksi (espn) reports, Simmons can now run again for a week and also race and will be able to participate again in the coming days on training.

Thus, it is also possible to use in the course of the series against the Celtics. The hope is that the Australian can complete at least 10 to 15 minutes per game. Jake Fischer of the blacher Report was even more concrete, his information, is a debut in Game 3 in Brooklyn not excluded.

Simmons had recently complained about back problems in the lumbar area and received an epidural injection in mid-March to relieve the pain. The Australian had come to Brooklyn for the Trade Deadline in the course of the trades for James Harden, but has not played a single second yet.

The top pick from 2016 had demanded a trade in the previous year after the playoff-from the Philadelphia 76er against Atlanta, from then on a further commitment and justified this with mental problems. There are still civil procedures today because the Sixers then adjusted salary payments. In his five years in Philadelphia, Simmons was three times All-Star and was chosen twice to the All-Defense First Team.
