While it always seemed unrealistic, the possibility of Ben Simmons coming back to Philly is over for now.
The former Philadelphia 76ers star guard is back in the NBA after agreeing to a contract with the Sacramento Kings on Sept. 4.
The three-time All-Star inked a one-year, $3.5 million deal with the Kings for the upcoming 2026-2027 NBA season.
Simmons, who has been out of the league after playing in only 18 games during the 2024-2025 season, said in an interview with Men's Health in June that he planned for get back into NBA shape while he worked out in Miami.
He said that included "two and a half to three hours of lifting and body work, as well as hour-and-a-half sessions on the court, with a day or two off every week. He had hoped to be back to full strength by his 30th birthday, July 20," Men's Health reported.
