Ben Simmons pictured on Instagram getting tattoos with his fiancé…wait what?

Just when you thought my push to vote Ben Simmons an NBA All-Star was just a reason for me to write about him because we haven’t heard shit lately, we stumbled across an Instagram post showing Ben Simmons getting tattooed with his fiancé.
Ben Simmons gets tattooed with his fiancé
Well, it’s definitely good to see that Ben Simmons can commit to something after completely abandoning the Philadelphia 76ers. I suppose if you found a partner that sticks with you while your whole professional career is collapsing around you, she’s a keeper.
There were rumors floating around earlier this month of Ben Simmons getting engaged and throwing a big party at his house in South Jersey. On December 21st, Crossing Broad’s Kevin Kinkead received a tip which we now know turned out to be a good one.
Simmons is currently getting fined to oblivion by the Philadelphia 76ers and will approach the $10 million mark after missing tonight’s game against the Brooklyn Nets. The Sixers are two games above the .500 mark on the season and have definitely missed Ben Simmons out on the floor during the first part of the 2021 season.
Glad to see that Ben Simmons is out there still living his life, getting engaged, and strolling around getting new tattoos thought, right?
Not really, honestly. But at the end of the day, he still needs to live his life outside of basketball.
Speaking of basketball, does Ben Simmons actually want to play? Has anyone ever asked him that? This whole saga is ridiculous and now with images appearing showing that he’s getting engaged while the 76ers are struggling to stay above the .500 mark, I’m sure that question will take center stage.
Happy for him and his fiancee. Maybe he got tired of having so many parts of his life play out in the public eye and decided to keep his relationship low key. As far as basketball, it doesn’t feel like he wants to play. Not showing up doesn’t help the Sixers move him and I can’t imagine not doing something I enjoy, at the cost of millions of $$, just to make a point.
Agreed!
