Ben Simmons, the 30-year-old guard for the Sacramento Kings, has returned to the team's facility after suffering a torn Achilles tendon during a practice in October. The veteran player has been working diligently to regain his strength and mobility throughout the rehabilitation process. Despite missing the entire previous season, Simmons has expressed his commitment to making a comeback in the NBA.
He recently attended a Kings practice and spoke with general manager Scott Perry, indicating his active involvement in the team's progress. The former No. 1 overall draft pick underwent surgery shortly after receiving a diagnosis of a right Achilles tendon rupture from an MRI. Although the injury ended his season prematurely, Simmons is determined to return, stating, "My mentality is that I’ll be back. I’ll do everything in my power to get back, get healthy and be better than I was before."
