Simmons (illness) is doubtful for Wednesday's game against the Suns, Erik Slater of ClutchPoints.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Simmons appears likely to miss both games of this back-to-back set after sitting out against the Knicks on Tuesday. D'Angelo Russell is resting and Cameron Johnson (ankle) is doubtful, so the Nets are going to be extremely shorthanded. As a result, the Nets have recalled Dariq Whitehead from the G League for additional depth.
