Kendall Jenner:
Kendall Jenner and NBA player Ben Simmons are officially giving their romance a third go, and People has a little insight into why the on-off couple came back to each other at the end of 2019.
The two originally started dating in May 2018, split at the end of the summer, then got back together in the fall of 2018.
Jaylen Brown:
Brad Stevens has been no stranger to trade rumors for years as the head coach of the Boston Celtics. However, a specific report involving Ben Simmons and All-Star Jaylen Brown led him to take action earlier this week after the Athletic reported Boston’s interest in the All-Star forward and Philly’s asking price for him being Brown.
In his weekly interview with Toucher and Rich on 98.5 The Sports Hub, Stevens threw cold water on that report and confirmed MassLive’s reporting from Monday that the team had no interest in moving Brown.
Fined:
Paul, in an exclusive with The Athletic’s Charania , shared that the franchise’s recent tactics that are geared towards helping Simmons return to action is only worsening the star’s mental health.
This comes a week after the franchise had reportedly fined the point guard $360,000 (his game check) for missing the team’s home game against the Detroit Pistons and failing to
“cooperate with team physicians on his mental health issues and fulfill other basketball-related obligations.”
