Ben Simmons has impressed the Nets with his renewed athleticism and aggressiveness for much of the preseason, but there are a few things his old coach said he needs to see before he’s ready to say the former All-Star is back.
With Simmons seemingly feeling good both on and off the court, Rivers said the next step will involve a part of his game that has typically haunted the 6-foot-10 star. “I think every coach that has coached him has their version of what we think, for Ben, is playing right,’’ Rivers said. “And then, it’s everybody else.”Rivers, of course, famously said after that 2020-21 season that he didn’t know if a team could win a title with Simmons at point guard due to his offensive limitations.
