Brooklyn Nets guard Ben Simmons is targeting a return for midway through the team’s first-round playoff series against the Boston Celtics, within Games 4-6, sources told The Athletic.
Simmons, who arrived in Brooklyn via a blockbuster trade deadline deal with the Philadelphia 76ers, has yet to play this season. His progress toward a return after the trade was slowed by a back injury. Simmons received an epidural shot for a herniated disk in mid-March, but more recently resumed practicing.
A three-time All-Star, Simmons averaged 14.3 points, 7.2 rebounds and 6.9 assists in 58 games for the Sixers last season. His last appearance in an NBA game came on June 20, 2021, when Philadelphia was eliminated from the playoffs by the Atlanta Hawks.
Brooklyn clinched the No. 7 seed with a 115-108 win over the Cleveland Cavaliers on Tuesday. Kyrie Irvingand Kevin Durant combined for 59 points and 23 assists.
The Nets-Celtics series begins on Sunday in Boston. Game 4 is scheduled for April 25 in Brooklyn, Game 5 (if necessary) is April 27 in Boston, and Game 6 (if necessary) is April 29 in Brooklyn.

Their issues are usually physical not mentalWhat's confusing to me is why he can't ramp up on court. Plenty of people coming off "injury" start off playing 5-10 minutes off the bench to see what they can handle and get them used to game speed.
