The Nets' Simmons has been plagued by injuries in recent years, and he posted a number of training photos before the season, emphasizing that he will return strongly. As a result, he only played 6 games this season, and Simmons was out indefinitely due to a lower back injury, and the Nets announced today that Simmons will be out for at least 2 more weeks to reassess his physical condition.
Simmons declined to represent Australia in the World Cup again this year and is actively preparing for the new season. However, he suffered a hip injury in early November, and after an MRI examination, it was found that the nerve in his lower back was damaged, and the Nets carefully managed the injury and announced that he would be out indefinitely.
Simmons has recently received injections** and has increased his training volume, and his injury is gradually improving, although he still has to wait for the results of the evaluation in two weeks. Simmons was the top pick in the 2016 draft, and because of his excellent physical condition and passing awareness, many fans expected to become a new generation of all-round players, but his shooting ability has never improved, and he has been injured one after another, and the fans' expectations for him have gradually disappeared, and his contract will not expire until 2025.
Today, the Nets faced the New York Knicks at home, falling behind almost the entire game, losing 102-121 in the final game, swallowing the recent four-game losing streak. With a current record of 13 wins and 14 defeats, he is temporarily in 9th place in the Eastern Conference.
2023-24 NBA season.
