?Ben Will Be Joining Dwight in Taiwan Soon?: NBA World Erupts at Ben Simmons After Luka Doncic Humiliates Him During Mavs vs Nets

The woes of Ben Simmons continue as the Brooklyn Nets lost to the Dallas Mavericks in a close game. At the beginning of the season, there were high expectations with the trio of Simmons, Kevin Durant, and Kyrie Irving. But Simmons had a nightmare start to the season. However, his teammates showed him support. Irving talked about the Australian’s lack of game time in the last couple of years and suggested he might need some time to pick up where he left off. But things have not improved. And the fans showed no mercy.

The game against Dallas Mavericks was one more brick laid against him. Superstar Luka Doncic dropped Simmons who is regarded as one of the best defenders in the league as he dribbled and whizzed past him. The Net’s star touched the ground awkwardly.

Interestingly, in a recent podcast, Howard revealed the Brooklyn Nets didn’t want to sign him. The reason they gave the player was they wanted a player who could shoot. Howard had approached the Nets as a free agent. But his request got shot down. Howard didn’t understand their motives.

Ben Simmons returned on Monday night to the Nets’ lineup. He had missed 4 games before that owing to problems with his left knee. Before playing the Dallas Mavericks, he said his knee was a hindrance. He added his injuries had impacted the quality of his play.

Simmons missed all of last season to recover and rehabilitate from his health concerns. ESPN insider, Adrian Wojnarowski reported that Ben Simmons has been a “source of frustration” for the Nets players. He has not been stable with his health and is yet to contribute to the team in a positive manner.

The Mavericks won the game with a 96-94 score point. Doncic won the hearts of the crowd with his fantastic performance. Can’t say the same for Ben Simmons.
