4 years agoPhiladelphia 76ers guard Ben Simmons (illness) is officially out on Friday against the Bulls. Updating a previous report, Simmons was listed as probable, though that seemed like a very optimistic outlook given that he couldn't participate in the team's shootaround. Philadelphia will be without his services for the second straight game as he continues to deal with the flu, though he's at least close to making his return. Tyrese Maxey will likely get the start at point guard with Shake Milton (ankle) also out- and will be a great DFS play against a Bulls team that has allowed the seventh-most FanDuel points to point guards. Seth Curry should also have added appeal.--Tim Capurso
