Sixers plan to start Ben Simmons at point guard with no restrictions
Ben Simmons’s recovery is going according to plan, and the Philadelphia 76ers don’t anticipate anything holding him back.
After Simmons missed the entire 2016-17 season with a broken foot, the team has him back, and coach Brett Brown plans on him being the starting point guard.
Brett Brown remains locked in with Ben Simmons being the PG.

The team had not ruled out keeping Simmons on a minutes limit for the start of the season, and perhaps they still will. For now, though, Simmons is going to operate without restrictions, and Sixers fans should be excited about what is to come.
