Ben Simmons, the 30-year-old forward, is attempting a comeback to the NBA after missing the entire 2021-2022 season due to injuries. He is currently training with the Australian national men's basketball team in private sessions, with the goal of securing a spot on the 2028 Olympic roster. The videos from these training sessions have reignited discussions about Simmons' shooting abilities, reminiscent of his past offseason showcase of improved outside shooting stroke.

Fans and analysts alike are curious to see if he can recover from his prior issues and regain his former defensive prowess, particularly in a team-oriented league like the NBA.
