Ben Simmons Broken Foot

[DEERSPINE GUY]

OMG, what a drama queen. The dude has a simple foot fracture and will likely only miss a month of the season. His career is not in peril.

GROW UP.

Simmons

30 more lbs could not have helped but it sounds like he rolled his ankle which led to the break.

That's a baseless claim, Simmons weighed 239 at the Nike Hoop Summit in 2015.

Looks like it's just a Jones fracture, so it should be around 8 weeks. Not the end of the world, but it still sucks.

THAT'S GREAT IF IT'S 8 WEEKS AND NOT ANY MORE SERVERE AN INJURY. THERE'S BEEN MANY WHO HAVE NOT HAD A DECENT CHANCE, WITH FOOT BREAKS, TO HAVE A CAREER.

ESPN's Jeff Goodman is saying 3 months...wouldn't surprise me to not see him til after the All-Star break in February.

Had surgery today. No timetable given for his return. Hopefully an update will be available in about a week.

I know you hate him

It's the little ponytail, right?

[McCarthy12]

lol, I don't mind the hair. He just has me scratching my head sometimes.

He's a nice complimentary sort of player.

They're going to need another stud offensive type to replace Barnetta. Elsino is nice but seems to be constantly out of shape. Alberg disappears for stretches. They need a consistent threat there.

now youre a doctor?

[Kelly Green]

[Irish George]

this guy is giving him a timetable and saying its a good thing he is hurt...but keep on defending him
