Ben Simmons and Dariq Whitehead missed the majority of the Nets' 2023-24 season, but both guards are tracking toward full recoveries, according to general manager Sean Marks. Simmons, who has been rehabbing in Miami since undergoing a microscopic partial discectomy to alleviate the pinched nerve in his lower back, appeared in just 15 games this season and 57 total since being acquired by the Nets three years ago. It was Simmons' second surgery since being traded to Brooklyn in 2022.
