The Brooklyn Nets changed the landscape of the NBA with their blockbuster James Harden trade, receiving star guard Ben Simmons in return. As the sports world well knows, Simmons has yet to play a single minute on an NBA court this season, so his possible return to action will be one of the bigger storylines in the NBA moving forward. On Thursday, Simmons’ return timetable received a key update following the Harden trade, via reporter Brandon “Scoop B” Robinson.

Robinson reports that newly acquired Nets guard Ben Simmons will join the team for their road trip on Friday when they travel to Miami for a game against the Heat on Saturday.
