For those expecting the news of how Sixers' Ben Simmons' final foot scan went, people will surely enjoy the results. The test results were first supposed to be announced on Monday, but they were announced on Tuesday instead.
Simmons, who has yet to make his NBA debut, was sidelined before the season started with a fractured foot. Rumors of the rookie's debut have been swirling for weeks now, and the update on his foot comes at a good time and shows that he has made quite a progression since the end of September.
Ben Simmons had a planned scan yest with operating physician in NY. Per Sixers, he's progressing as expected, still no timetable for return.

While there is no timetable on his return to playing action, Simmons has been cleared to continue routine work outs on the way to his recovery. Hopefully soon, Simmons will have a chance to practice up to full speed with the rest of his teammates on his way to putting on the Sixers uniform for the first time in his career.
