The Nets have put Ben Simmons’ sore left knee on a strengthening program, and have ruled him out through Sunday. But it likely will be longer.
CHICAGO — The Nets have put Ben Simmons’ sore left knee on a strengthening program, and have ruled him out through their game Sunday at Atlanta. But the 26-year-old said he’s liable to miss several more games.
“I had it drained right before All-Star. I also had a PRP,” Simmons said. “It’s frustrating, but it’s something that’s an injury I’ve never dealt with before. So it’s something I’m learning about, that we’re learning about. Simmons missed all of last season with a herniated L-4 disk in his back and eventually required a microdiscectomy procedure in May.
“Structurally, it’s good. It’s just a strength thing and getting it under control. It’s a frustrating process with the back and dealing with it all. It’s just something I have to deal with and it’s taking time. I just have to stay on top of it. We’re trying to work towards me coming back to being in a place where I can play at a level I can contribute and move.”
