My thoughts are

1) They don't think they can get much for him at present.
2) They may be thinking if he plays and plays well he might want to stay in Philly.

As the Philadelphia 76ers move forward in the 2021-22 season, Ben Simmons is addressing his mental health and preparation to rejoin the team.

The Sixers are helping the 25-year-old All-Star, giving him the resources to move forward. The Sixers want him on the floor with the team to help them win games and boost his trade value for the trade he wants.

They started fining him again for something. Such a mess.

Whenever I feel frustrated about the Lakers I can always just look at the 76ers organization dumpster fire and feel better.

They are fining him because he won’t work with the organization on his mental health. Personally that pisses me of, he uses that as an excuse to get paid while not playing. Then refuses to address that issue. It’s a poor reflection on people with real mental health issues.

Him and his agent are just playing the organization until they are able to get him out of Philly. He won't suit up for the 76ers this season.
