After missing nearly a year of action as he worked his way back into playing shape, Ben Simmons is reportedly prepared to make his season debut in the coming days.
The three-time All-Star is planning to make his season debut when the Nets host the Celtics for Game 4 of their first-round series on Monday night, per The Athletic’s Shams Charania. The former 76er has not played since last June due to physical and mental health concerns.
Simmons, who has carefully spent the last couple of months rehabbing a back injury, should be cleared to play in time for the game, as long as his rehab “remains on course,” Charania noted.
