    “After consulting with our doctors, multiple specialists, he’s just gonna begin a rehab program. Our doctors and the specialists feel and think that he’ll have a full recovery, so that starts now,”

    Vaughn emphasized that the Nets — and their doctors — expect Simmons to be back at full strength by next season. And it was clear from Vaughn’s comments that the Nets are not interested in moving the three-time All-Star acquired in the James Harden trade.

    “It takes 18 months for your nerves to fully heal. People don’t know that. But over time, you know, I get better and better. Just keep pushing.”

    The Nets have not revealed medical specifics re the issue, but a doctor at the same hospital where Simmons underwent his surgery agreed with Simmons 18-month perspective.

    I wonder if forcing himself to play this season and the flair-ups makes the process take longer

  4. That’s good to hear, I want him to get better

    Other than forcibly sitting out on the sixers (which I kinda understand but thought it was still unprofessional), he’s never had any issues on or off the court. The amount of hate he gets is still crazy to me because he seems to be a good-hearted person. Hell, he even donated to the city that turned their back on him and did it anonymously knowing that it wasn’t even appreciated

  5. Ben or ben’s people if y’all are reading this, I believe in Ben. I’ve been saying this for months. He’s great
