Ben Simmons is someone who NBA fans have largely run out of favor with. Overall, there are some obvious and glaring reasons for that. Although he used to be one of the most exciting players in the league, he has fallen off. He barely plays these days, and when he does, he barely puts in any effort. Ultimately, it has been very hard to watch. Some said he was a jump shot away from being as good as LeBron James. However, he will likely never be a superstar-caliber player, ever again.
Throughout this past year with the Brooklyn Nets, Ben Simmons was on and off with his availability. However, once Kevin Durant and Kyrie Irving were traded, he ultimately just stopped playing altogether. For many fans, this was incredibly frustrating. Although, in the eyes of Simmons, it was for a good reason. He had been suffering from back issues, including an impingement to a nerve in his back. Subsequently, there were rumblings about Simmons’ commitment to basketball and whether or not he would even come back.
