Brian Lewis: The #Nets added Ben Simmons to tonight's injury report, questionable with left calf tightness

Brooklyn Nets Injury Report

The Brooklyn Nets have added Ben Simmons to their injury report, and he is questionable for tonight's game against the Philadelphia 76ers with left calf tightness. Simmons has been dealing with the injury for the past few days, and it is unclear if he will be able to play tonight.

If Simmons is unable to play, it will be a big blow to the Nets, who are already without Kevin Durant (knee) and Kyrie Irving (suspension). The Nets are currently 2-5 in their last seven games, and they need to get healthy soon if they want to make a playoff push.

Simmons' Injury History

Simmons has a history of knee injuries, and he missed the entire 2021-22 season due to a back injury. He has also dealt with foot injuries in the past.

The Nets are hoping that Simmons' calf tightness is not a serious injury, and that he will be able to return to the lineup soon. However, the Nets need to be careful with Simmons, as they cannot afford to lose him for an extended period of time.

What's Next for the Nets?

The Nets will face the Philadelphia 76ers tonight at 7:30 p.m. ET. If Simmons is unable to play, the Nets will likely start Seth Curry in his place. The Nets will also need to rely on James Harden and Patty Mills to step up in Simmons' absence.

The Nets are currently in seventh place in the Eastern Conference, and they need to start winning games if they want to make a playoff push. The Nets have a tough schedule coming up, and they will need to be at their best if they want to make the playoffs.
