Ben Simmons, the player for the Brooklyn Nets, has been facing a difficult period in his NBA career. He has been facing a lot of backlash from fans of both the 76ers and the Brooklyn Nets due to his struggles on the court. Simmons has been criticized for his passiveness and absence during games, leading to fans’ disappointment.

Former Nets player Kevin Garnett has offered some encouraging words to Simmons, urging him to go back to his roots and find the love for the game that got him to where he is today. Garnett also reminded Simmons of the many players who are fighting to make it into the league and that if his heart isn’t in it, he won’t succeed.

“I want you go back and find your roots. Go back and find why you love playing the game… There’s Melo, Cousins at home, Dwight,” Kevin said. “There’s n— at home that could be in the league. If your heart ain’t in it, it is what it is,” Garnett said.

Simmons was acquired by the Nets in hopes that he would be a great addition to the team, especially after the departure of Kyrie Irving and Kevin Durant. However, things didn’t turn out as expected, and Simmons struggled to make an impact on the court.

After experiencing a series of struggles, Ben Simmons has been forced to sit out for the remainder of the 2022-23 NBA season. Despite his efforts, the point guard appeared ineffective and could not contribute to his team’s success. As a result, there are growing concerns about the trajectory of his career and whether he will be able to regain his previous form.

In 42 games this season, Simmons averaged only 6.9 points, 6.3 rebounds, and 6.1 assists per game. This is a far cry from his previous seasons, where he was considered one of the top point guards in the league.

Despite Simmons’ struggles, many people still believe in him and want to see him succeed. Kevin Garnett’s words of encouragement remind us that even the best players can struggle and that it’s important to remember why we fell in love with the game in the first place.

As Simmons takes the time to recover and regroup, fans can only hope he’ll find his way back to the court stronger and better than ever. Only time will tell if Simmons can return to his former glory, but anything is possible with the support of his fans and fellow players.
