The Sixers will miss All-Star Ben Simmons for an indefinite period of time.

This is a brutal loss for the Sixers.

According to The Athletic’s Shams Charania, the official diagnosis on Ben Simmons‘ injured left knee is a “subluxation of the left patella.” Simmons hurt his knee in the third quarter of Wednesday’s win over the Washington Wizards.

Simmons is considering treatment options and is listed as out. That ominous verbiage — the fact that there are multiple options on the table — does not bode well for Simmons’ immediate future.
