ESPN's Adrian Wojnarowski reported that Simmons could return as soon Game 3 or 4.
Game 3 hasn’t been fully ruled out yet, but that would require Simmons to clear more hurdles in a much shorter window of time, sources said.

Nash appeared to refute the report when asked about it.
"That's news to me," Nash said on Wednesday. "I don't think we're targeting any game, I think we're trying to see how he develops, how he progresses."
