Steve Nash downplays severity of Ben Simmons injury: ‘a little soreness in his back’

Shams Charania of The Athletic reported Saturday evening that Ben Simmons is dealing with “back soreness” in his reconditioning ramp-up process. The report did not detail any timetable for the 25-year-old star’s return and it’s unclear whether Simmons will reach conditioning benchmarks needed for him to be available when the Nets travel to Philadelphia on March 10.

Brooklyn has no set timetable for Simmons' return. It's uncertain whether the three-time All-Star will clear necessary return-to-play hurdles for Nets' March 10 return trip to Philadelphia, but team is treating as a day-to-day process.
