Kings' Ben Simmons reportedly believed to have sustained torn Achilles tendon in practice
The injury is reportedly suspected to be season-ending.
Sacramento Kings guard Ben Simmons reportedly suffered a torn Achilles tendon during practice on Sunday, potentially sidelining him for the entire season, according to ESPN's Shams Charania. The nature of the injury has not been fully confirmed, but it is suspected to be season-ending. Simmons made his preseason debut for the Kings last Friday, playing 26 minutes and scoring 14 points against the San Antonio Spurs.
The 30-year-old, who signed a one-year $3.5 million deal with the Kings last month, had been seeking a return to the court after being sidelined last year.
