“League Is Shaking”: Early Morning Bombshell on Ben Simmons Turns NBA Playoffs Upside Down

Having sneaked their way into the NBA playoffs, things haven’t gone to plan for the Brooklyn Nets. After a poor couple of outings, Kevin Durant and co. find themselves down 0-2 to the Boston Celtics. However, the side may receive a major boost, and it could come soon. And the news involves none other than their latest signing, Ben Simmons.

The 2021-22 season has been full of ups and downs for the Nets. They were looking unbeatable, suffered some detrimental injuries, and came back to make the top-8.

During the transfer window, Steve Nash’s men swapped James Harden for the estranged 76ers guard in Ben Simmons. However, the 25-year-old hasn’t been in full fitness, and is yet to play a game for Durant’s side. But after the latest update, fans went berserk on social media.
