Philadelphia 76ers fans may have to wait a little longer to get a look at Ben Simmons, with coach Brett Brown doing little to quiet speculation about him sitting out the entire season.
Simmons is getting a CT scan on Thursday, and even before the results were in, Brown openly admitted that he couldn’t rule out Simmons not playing until next season.
Brown: 'I cannot clear up speculation' that Simmons won't play this season regardless of this afternoon's CT scan results. #Sixers

Rumors have been flying that Simmons won’t play until 2017-18, based in part on quotes from Sixers management. Brown’s quote on Thursday would seem to indicate that this is, indeed, a very real possibility.
