Ben Simmons Will Be Kept Out From Monday's Action
10 months agoBrooklyn Nets guard/forward Ben Simmons (back) won't play on Monday against Golden State. He has just returned from a lengthy absence, and the team is closely monitoring Simmons' workload. It's the first game of a back-to-back, and Simmons will likely return to the lineup Tuesday versus Dallas. The three-time All-Star hasn't played much since making his comeback, but he's still been productive, averaging 5.0 points, 8.5 rebounds, and 8.0 assists in 17.0 minutes in the two games he's featured in since returning. With Simmons unavailable, Lonnie Walker IV and Dennis Smith Jr. could get a few extra minutes on the court off the Brooklyn bench.
