Marc J. Spears notes a shift in Ben Simmons’ attitude and health

Marc J. Spears of Andscape and ESPN recently interviewed Brooklyn Nets’ Ben Simmons and observed a significant change in his demeanor compared to the past two years. Spears stated: “This confidence and swag that he had (during the interview) certainly is much different than we’ve seen from him in the last two years. He (Simmons) told me this is the healthiest he’s been, which you know I’m sure a lot of Nets fans and NBA fans are saying that they heard this before. But, one thing he mentioned when we went to get a bite in Miami was, hey I drove here and my back didn’t hurt. A year ago, people had to drive me. I couldn’t even sit still. And, so he’s like, he’s out of a lot of pain, he’s talking about being an All-Star again.”
