Probably not.

There is tons of speculation that the Sixers-Rockets game on January 27 being switched to ESPN could mean that Ben Simmons will make his debut that night. The WWL favored the Sixers over the Heat and Bulls, both of which stink and are uninteresting. Simmons, who isn’t even practicing in any significant way, fanned the flames with a curious ? ‘gram just after the news broke, but it’s hard to imagine the Sixers would rush him back before the all-star break. If anything, maybe, maybe this signals that Embiid will be an all-star, in which case you’d have a showdown between ALL-STARS James Harden and Embiid. Even if that’s not the case, Harden-Embiid is a pretty appealing national matchup compared to whatever slop the Heat are offering up these days. FAKE NEWS.
