It was also confirmed that Simmons participated more during Brooklyn's practice, according to Alex Schiffer of The Athletic. That however had no bearing on Simmons' status regarding the play-in.
Ben Simmons did more at practice today, but is still far from playing. Nash ruled him out for the rest of the regular season and the play-in.
