Ben Simmons will fully participate in a player-led minicamp for the Australian men’s basketball team this week in Melbourne, aiming for a spot on the 2028 Olympic team. Having previously played for the Boomers in 2013, Simmons has faced challenges in the NBA, including injuries and limited playtime, last appearing in 23 games for the Clippers in 2025. His godfather reports Simmons has regained his athleticism, and a non-guaranteed NBA offer is possible. This minicamp marks his first step toward an NBA comeback.
