After suffering a Jones fracture (fracture of the fifth metatarsal) in his right foot back in training camp and being forced to sit through all of the games thus far, what can Sixers fans expect from Ben Simmons upon his return? Given the minutes restrictions placed on fellow rookie star Joel Embiid, how will the 76ers limit Simmons when his debut finally arrives?
It is truly anyone’s guess as to how Philly’s front office and medical staff will handle the newly dubbed “Fresh Prince” when he finally steps on to the court for the first time. You could easily look at the uber caution taken with Joel Embiid and paste it on to Simmons.
