The engagement between Ben Simmons and Maya Jama has come to an end, according to recent reports. Their busy schedules and long distances are said to be the reasons for the couples’ separation.
“It’s been a difficult time for them,” a source close to the couple reported. “While they both care for each other so much, they truly gave it their all and realize that they just come from two different worlds. They now understand they don’t have the time they thought to dedicate to this relationship.”
For the Nets star, it’s time to focus on preparing for the NBA season ahead. His previous season had left him with a lot of room for improvement in terms of his performance. Last year, he did not appear in enough matches.

At the moment, he is in Brooklyn preparing for the new season. In terms of Jama, she’s been working hard in her professional life in the UK, both in TV and modeling. “After many long nights and hours of heartfelt talks, they finally realized as much as they love each other, their nonstop careers and endless travel have made it incredibly impossible to make it work,” according to the source.

In light of the fact that this isn’t the first time, Simmons received such criticism. He was shopping in a mall before this and someone made a few comments about his performance last season.
