Sources: Ben Simmons won't meet Philadelphia 76ers doctors to talk mental readiness

The Philadelphia 76ers are increasingly frustrated with Ben Simmons' refusal to accept organizational assistance to address his mental readiness to play, sources told ESPN.

While Simmons has been working with team doctors to treat a back ailment, he has been unwilling to meet with team doctors to discuss his mental readiness, sources said.



Instead, sources said, Simmons has worked with mental health professionals via the National Basketball Players Association since the summer. So far Simmons has yet to provide details of those meetings to the team, sources said.

On a regular basis at the team's Camden, New Jersey practice facility, Simmons has engaged with teammates and members of the coaching staff in one-on-one scenarios but has not advanced to rejoin full team activities and it's unclear when or if he will.
The Sixers remain eager to help Simmons address his mental readiness so he can return to the team. There's uncertainty whether he's progressing with that same objective, sources said.

Sources close to Simmons told ESPN they expect to provide the team with updates on his progress once he is comfortable doing so.

The Sixers fined Simmons nearly $2 million for missing games, practices and meetings earlier this season. But sources said the team stopped fining him once he told them on Oct. 22, that he wasn't mentally ready to play.

Phoenix Suns' Chris Paul takes sole possession of third place on career assists list

Phoenix Suns guard Chris Paul moved into No. 3 on the all-time assists list with his eighth against the visiting New Orleans Pelicans on Tuesday night.
With 1:34 left in the second quarter, on a 3-pointer by Jae Crowder, Paul notched career assist No. 10,336 to push past Suns legend Steve Nash for sole possession of third place.



He passed Mark Jackson with his seventh assist of the night, his final one of the first quarter. Paul started the night six assists behind Jackson (10,334) and seven behind Nash (10,335).
He finished the night with 18 assists in the Suns' 112-100 win to give him 10,346 for his career.

Earlier this season, Paul became the first player in NBA history with 20,000 career points and 10,000 career assists.

The assist that moved Paul up to No. 3 came against his original team, although it was the New Orleans Hornets back when he was drafted there in 2005.

In his first six seasons with New Orleans, Paul had 4,228 assists and led the league in assists per game in 2007-08 and 2008-09. From there, he moved on to the LA Clippers, where he totaled 4,023 assists in six seasons and again was a two-time league leader in assists per game in 2013-14 and 2014-15.

Paul's 9.4 assists per game average is fourth all time in the NBA behind Magic Johnson (11.2), John Stockton (10.5) and Oscar Robertson (9.5).

Such a great player with great stats, they might as well put him in the HOF right now!

Shit the NBA might need to revise the list to make it the Best 76 players, the Cavs have no idea what they let go!

Right @ansatsusha_gouki?
