Brooklyn Nets head coach Jacque Vaughn has reported that Ben Simmons is 100% healthy and going 5 on 5 entering Nets’ training camp.
If Ben Simmons can return to his 2019-early 2021 form that would be huge, but that’s a big IF. Let’s say he does though: we are talking about a 16/6/8 slash along with elite level defending.
Last season, Simmons appeared in 42 games, after missing the entire 2021/22 season due to a contact holdout and then a back injury. Simmons averaged just 6.9 points-per-game despite putting up one of the best field-goal percentages of his career at .566% in a 26-minute average.
