Ben Simmons is the loneliest man in Philadelphia as his ongoing trade saga took its saddest turn yet — providing proof he’s done with the 76ers.

Philadelphia star Matisse Thybulle — who was part of the Boomers’ bronze medal winning campaign at the Tokyo Olympics — believespodcast if Simmons was “thrown under the bus”, Thybulle was keen to defend his comrade. “Yeah, I mean, there’s a lot to be said,” Thybulle explained. “To the last point you made — he was thrown under the bus — you asked me if I’d been booed or if people had been mad at me. I made the foul that lost us the last game, and I received almost no .“I lost us the game which lost us the series and no one really spoke about it. They wanted to speak about passing up the dunk and passing it to me more than my foul.
However, Thybulle suggested Simmons wasn’t entirely blameless as the bad blood between him and Philadelphia reached the point of no return. “I think both sides play a decent role in it,” Thybulle said. “Neither side has really helped themselves in this situation.“On a human level as his teammate, as a friend, you hate to see people put in this situation that’s so heavily covered by the media because people lose sight of the human aspect of all of us as athletes, especially in these times, especially in controversial times where we’re looked at as a commodity.
