Former Sacramento Kings coach David Patrick believes that Ben Simmons' confidence is returning as he enters this new chapter in his NBA career. The veteran guard, who was selected No. 1 overall in the 2016 NBA Draft, has faced numerous highs and lows throughout his career. According to Patrick, getting his body healthy again has played a significant role in restoring the confidence Simmons appeared to lose over the past few seasons.
During an interview with Sactown Sports 1140 FM, Patrick mentioned that Simmons' improved confidence is evident as he returns to the gym and works on his shots, much like how he did in 2016. The last time Patrick saw Simmons, he noted that the guard had regained his swagger, which he hadn't seen until he was vying for the number one pick in the draft.
