Have you been missing the Ben Simmons/Sixers saga?
Since Ben told the team he wasn’t mentally ready to play with the team he started seeing a specialist but it wasn’t a team recommended specialist which they weren’t happy with.
Because of that, they fined him a game check and now he has met with a team recommended specialist to go over his mental health according to ESPN’s Adrian Wojnarowski. He will continue to see the specialist he wants and will continue working out.
According to The Athletic’s Shams Charania, Ben gave the team the names of all of his mental health professionals but he has to give the team consent to get more information like they want.
No timetable on when or if he’ll play with the team and despite all of this, according to both Woj and Shams, the Celtics have had discussions of a Ben for Jaylen Brown trade, but the Celtics aren’t interested.
So much drama.
