Impact Speaking about the matter Sunday on "SportsCenter," Wojnarowski said that Simmons continues to be limited to only light shooting work as he rehabs the sore back that required an epidural shot in mid-March. At this point, it's not realistic to expect Simmons to return for the play-in tournament, which begins in just over a week. If he's going to play for the Nets this season, the team will have to qualify for the eight-team playoff field. Should Brooklyn advance out of the play-in tournament, Simmons could make his 2021-22 debut at some point in the first round or thereafter.
