Ben Simmons, Fiance Maya Jama Spotted Strolling in New York Amid Back Pain Reports

Brooklyn Nets guard Ben Simmons will be out of the lineup for the rest of the regular season and Play-In Tournament, coach Steve Nash announced Monday.

Simmons has been recovering from back pain that has been bothering him since joining the team in February. Since being acquired by the Nets on Feb. 10 in a blockbuster trade that sent James Harden to the Philadelphia 76ers, Simmons has been dealing with back soreness.

Now it appears Ben is keeping busy with his fiancé. The two were spotted out and about in New York City. At least his back isn’t preventing him from leisure activities.

See Ben and Maya below:

Back in mid March Simmons had an epidural in hopes it would improve his back pain and relieve some of the irritation he has suffered with the injury.

Guess his back still isn’t ready.

At least he’s enjoying his time away from the court.
