Ben Simmons

Ben Simmons has not been seen much in the last eight months, but the newest Brooklyn Net was happy to make an appearance during Monday night’s game.

The Nets hosted the Sacramento Kings at Barclays Arena on Monday, and not only was Simmons in attendance, but he was on the bench. Though not yet playing with the team, Simmons seemed to be in a good mood, and looked to be laughing at something along with Andre Drummond, who was also part of the Simmons trade.

This will leave a bad taste in the mouths of Philadelphia 76ers fans. Simmons was never seen at the team’s home games, though the organization apparently tried to get him to at least sit with teammates on certain occasions.

Things had gotten very toxic between Simmons and the 76ers, and it’s pretty clear that at least one player was happy to see him go. Now that Simmons is with a team that invested in him and wants him around, he looks much more relaxed. His return to the court should happen fairly soon, as he is currently ramping up in order to play.
