Ben Simmons has yet to play for the Nets.

Ben Simmons is now a member of the Brooklyn Nets, and at this point, fans just want him to step back on the court. Unfortunately, Simmons has been unable to play any games with the Nets as he is dealing with a back issue that was sustained while trying to get in shape for his new team.

Despite the back issues, Simmons’ presence has had a positive effect on the team as the Nets seem to be on a bit of a roll here. Regardless, Simmons’ return to the court would certainly be appreciated right now, especially since it would be especially hard to get back on track in the playoffs, as opposed to right before the postseason.
