Nets' Ben Simmons (left knee contusion) probable Saturday at 76ers The Brooklyn Nets announced on Friday that Ben Simmons is probable for Saturday’s game at the Philadelphia 76ers.
Officially deemed probable Simmons (knee) is probable for Saturday's game against the 76ers, Meghan Triplett of YES Network reports.
Impact Simmons was expected to play Saturday, and his probable designation on the Nets' initial injury report echoes that optimism. He played 18 minutes in his return to action Monday against Utah, and he'll presumably have his minutes monitored if he's officially cleared to suit up against Philadelphia.

Expected to play Saturday Simmons (knee) is expected to play in Saturday's game against the 76ers, Brian Lewis of the New York Postreports.
Impact Simmons was unable to play Wednesday against Phoenix after picking up a knee contusion in his return to action Monday, but it appears that the injury is considered very mild which will be a relief for Brooklyn. He fared really well in his last outing, producing 10 points, 11 assists and eight rebounds in 18 minutes. There will be an official update Friday when the Nets release their injury report.

Ruled out for Wednesday Simmons (knee) has been ruled out for Wednesday's game against Phoenix, Shams Charania of The Athletic reports.
Impact Simmons returned from a 38-game absence due to a back injury Monday against the Jazz, but he's developed swelling in his knee stemming from a hit he took during the game. However, tests showed no further issues, so he should be considered day-to-day for now. His next chance to suit up will be Saturday against the 76ers, while Dennis Smith and Cam Thomas could see increased run Wednesday.

Downgraded to questionable Simmons (knee) is questionable for Wednesday's game against the Suns.
Impact Simmons made his return Monday following a 38-game absence due to a back issue, posting 10 points, 11 assists and eight rebounds in 18 minutes during a blowout win over Utah. However, he landed on the injury report Tuesday and was listed as probable due to a knee contusion, which he presumably suffered during Monday's game. He's now been downgraded to out, which isn't a good sign, but Simmons' official availability likely won't be known until closer to the 8:30 p.m. ET tipoff.

Listed probable for Wednesday Simmons is probable for Wednesday's game against the Suns due to a left knee contusion, Evan Barnes of Newsday reports.
Impact Simmons fell awkwardly at the end of Monday's win over Utah, but he should be fine moving forward. It's encouraging to see him not listed with the back injury, which caused him to miss 38 straight games before his return versus the Jazz. Simmons looked sharp in limited work during his first game since Nov. 6, falling two rebounds short of a triple-double in just 18 minutes. While he'll likely be available again Wednesday, it's safe to presume Simmons will be limited to around 20 minutes versus Phoenix.

Impresses in return Simmons (back) scored 10 points (5-5 FG) and added 11 assists, eight rebounds, one steal and one block across 18 minutes Monday in the Nets' 147-114 win over the Jazz.
Impact Expectations were rightfully held in check for Simmons on Monday after he had missed the Nets' previous 38 games while recovering from a nerve impingement in his lower back, but the 27-year-old performed far better in his return than most could have hoped. Despite not clearing 20 minutes on the night, Simmons was a dominant plus-27 during his time on the court and was efficient not only as a shooter but also as a passer, as he committed no turnovers on the night. It's unclear if Simmons will reclaim the 30-plus-minute role as the Nets' starting point guard that he held earlier this season, but his performance Monday certainly gave him a compelling case to unseat the struggling Spencer Dinwiddie for that role. Even if the Nets elect to keep him on the bench, Simmons looks to be worthy of a pickup in 12- and perhaps even 10-team leagues where he might be available on the waiver wire following his prolonged absence.
