Ben Simmons Won't Suit Up Against The Pacers
2 years agoBrooklyn Nets forward Ben Simmons (knee, calf) is out for Saturday's meeting with the Pacers. The 26-year-old returned from a four-game absence on Friday against Atlanta, logging 20 minutes. However, with Brooklyn beginning its four-game road trip, he'll get the night off. Yuta Watanabe (hamstring) will return from a lengthy absence and should slide into the starting lineup. He has averaged only eight points this season. Yet, considering the team will also be without Kevin Durant (knee), Kyrie Irving (adductor), Seth Curry (ankle), Joe Harris (ankle), and Nicolas Claxton (hamstring), Watanabe has an excellent chance to finish as a top fantasy producer, and his efficient 57% shooting from deep will be embraced by category managers.
