Ben Simmons receives siren calls from the NBL

His fall has been abrupt and dramatic, going from being a clear disruptive star project to becoming a stagnant player whose work ethic is far from ideal. Ben Simmons could hit rock bottom in his descent to hell if he doesn't find a team to play with in the upcoming NBA season. That's why they are trying to lure him to the NBL from Australia.

He was an All-Star, Defensive Player of the Year, a key element in the Sixers' project aiming for glory, and a renowned expert in recording triple-doubles. However, everything collapsed as if it were a house of cards. Injuries, indiscipline, lack of effort to improve, and other factors make Ben Simmons an undesirable player for NBA franchises. There is a clear chance he might end up teamless, so Australia is already mobilizing its media machinery to attract him to their league.

The NBL, the Australian domestic competition, keeps growing, and given Ben Simmons's situation, they see it as a good opportunity for the prodigal son to return home and reconcile with basketball. "He's too good not to be playing; we believe that if he came to the NBL, his passion for basketball would reignite," remarked the league's CEO. The reality is that his shooting ineffectiveness, loss of physical explosiveness, and lack of tactical intelligence have condemned him to an ostracism that Australia aims to rescue him from.
