Ben Simmons (calf) returning Friday for Nets
Brooklyn Nets forward Ben Simmons (calf) is not on the injury report for Friday versus the Atlanta Hawks.
Simmons is set to return after missing the last four games. The Hawks' game is the front end of a back-to-back for Brooklyn, so Simmons will likely sit out Saturday versus the Indiana Pacers. Joe Harris has been starting in place of Simmons and there have been more minutes available for Edmond Sumner and Cam Thomas off the bench.
numberFire's models project Simmons for 24.0 minutes and 24.6 FanDuel points on Friday. Over his last seven healthy games, Simmons is averaging 37.2 FanDuel points in 31.4 minutes, with 13.6 points, 7.6 rebounds, 6.1 assists, 1.6 steals, and 1.0 blocks.
