HOT: Ben Simmons Missed 153 Games Over The Last Three Seasons

Information reaching Kossyderrickent has it that Ben Simmons missed 153 games over the last three seasons.

For the last several years, Ben Simmons has been one of the more intriguing people in the NBA.

He has always been considered someone who possesses the talent to possibly become a borderline superstar, but he has also had qualities that have greatly held him back.

One of the talking points this season when it came to Ben Simmons was his availability. Brooklyn Nets head coach Jacque Vaughn shed light on his player’s recovery and progress ahead of the team’s matchup against the Thunder.

“He actually had a workout today. Still progressing, which is good. The ability to get on court with multiple bodies around him (Simmons). So, that’s kind of where he’s at and just building from here. So, some good signs moving forward. We’re just got to continue to see how his strength measurements continue to build and just increasing the stimuli for him. Nothing … has set him back from progressing.”

Simmons has always been a tantalizing prospect because of his ability to rebound, create fast breaks, attack the basket, hit the open man, and defend at a high level.

At 6-foot-10, some have even compared his abilities to those of Magic Johnson and LeBron James.
