Ben Simmons not close to returning. Season in jeopardy?

The Nets gave a Ben Simmons injury status update over the weekend and it wasn’t amazing news around timelines. Brooklyn said that Simmons had received an epidural on his back and that there would be another update in a couple of weeks.

Fans hoping there would be a return to peak form for Simmons likely have to really pump the brakes now and it does beg the question of what the Nets should do now?

It’s a tough spot considering Simmons's last few years of performance and his current contract status.
