Ben Simmons (back Tightness) Questionable for Tuesday's Game Against Pistons
After playing all but one game his rookie season, Ben Simmons may be out for the
Sixers on Tuesday night.
Simmons sat out the Sixers' practice Monday and is questionable for Tuesday's ga
me against the Pistons in Detroit, per NBC Sports Philadelphia's Serena Winters.
After Simmons received treatment during the team's shootaround Tuesday, head coa
ch Brett Brown said Simmons was doubtful, though he remains officially listed as
questionable.
On Saturday night against the Magic, Simmons exited the game with 4:19 remaining
in the first quarter with back tightness and did not return.
"I thought he played OK, but it was clear that something was going on," Brown sa
id after the game. "Despite that, I thought he was OK on the floor, and I just t
ook him out and was informed that he wouldn't be coming back."
With Simmons out, Brown chose to go with T.J. McConnell at the point to finish S
aturday's game instead of Markelle Fultz.
If Simmons sits against Detroit, there could be an opportunity for Brown to star
t Fultz at the one, the position where he feels the second-year guard is best.
Simmons, who sat out the 2016-17 season with a broken foot, only missed the Sixe
rs' game against the Magic on Nov. 25, 2017, during his rookie season, with left
elbow swelling. McConnell had 15 points and 13 assists in a 130-11 Sixers win.
Wilson Chandler (hamstring strain) is out vs. the Pistons and for Wednesday nigh
t's game against the Bucks. Mike Muscala (ankle sprain) was a full participant a
t practice and is questionable for Tuesday. Jerryd Bayless (knee sprain) and Zha
ire Smith (foot fracture) remain out.

西門在上次對戰魔術的第一節4：19時退場後就再沒上場
並缺席了昨天的團隊練習
今天對戰活塞不一定會上場
