Ben Simmons, the former No. 1 overall pick, has suffered a suspected torn Achilles tendon during Sacramento Kings' practice, potentially ending his season before it began. The 30-year-old guard, who signed a one-year deal with the Kings, had been looking to make a comeback after not playing last year. Simmons had been performing well in the preseason, starting in a game against the San Antonio Spurs and scoring 14 points. However, the injury could now sideline him for the entire season.
