Ben Simmons will not play for Australia in 2021 Summer Olympics

Sixers fans will not be seeing Ben Simmons on the court during this summer's Olympics. Klutch CEO Rich Paul told ESPN that Simmons will not be playing alongside the Australian National Team to concentrate on his individual development. Ben isn't the first All-Star to opt-out of Tokyo so far. MVP Nikola Jokic, Chris Paul, James Harden, and LeBron James are just some of the others to announce they will not be participating.
