Ben Simmons gave another interview this week, this time his first to local New York outlets, and there continues to be an air of positivity around his return to the court this season. Things are lining up, at least if Ben Simmons can be believed here, to be one of the better comeback stories in awhile.

Of course, Ben Simmons’ time in Brooklyn has been marred by injury and underwhelming play, but it appears as if his health is trending in the right direction now. He’s set to have a major impact on the Nets this season, and he represents the exact kind of player the team desperately needs right now. 

The Locked on Nets guys take a look at Ben Simmons’ most recent quotes and what the expectations are coming into this season.
