Ben Simmons Update: 76ers Star Reportedly 'Not Accepting' Help Team Is Offering Him

Ben Simmons has not accepted any help from the 76ers regarding his mental health, per ESPN's Romona Shelburne.

On Oct. 22, Simmons informed the team that he was not mentally ready to play this season.

According to ESPN, instead of keeping the 76ers in the loop regarding his road back to the court, he has not kept the team informed and "frustration is mounting." He has instead seen mental health professionals made available by the National Basketball Players Association instead of Philadelphia's resources.

There is no timetable for his return.
