Patty Mills hopeful Ben Simmons will play in FIBA World Cup
The Brooklyn Nets veteran guard Patty Mills is hopeful his longtime friend Ben Simmons will be recovered enough from surgery to suit up for Australia.
“We’re still a few weeks away yet,” said Mills. “From all accords and from what I’ve heard, he’s looking after his body and getting to the shape and healthy that I think everyone wants and needs him to be. So I think first and foremost for him is just about getting to that part where he can be Ben again.
“Obviously a full offseason of healthy rehab, healthy workouts, both in the gym and on the court, I think is what he’s looking at. From what I’ve heard, he’s looking good and feeling good, and we’ll see how we roll out from there. But I think until then, we just have to wait and see.”
