5 years agoPhiladelphia 76ers point guard Ben Simmons produced a big double-double on Monday, finishing a 101-95 loss to Indiana with 24 points and 14 rebounds, shooting 10-for-17. Tobias Harris also had a double-double in the game with 15 points and 11 rebounds. Joel Embiid (hand) is expected to miss 1-2 weeks, so we can expect to see Simmons try and be a bigger scoring threat again in the upcoming games. He has an ideal matchup coming up on Wednesday against the Nets, who are the worst defensive team against opposing point guards this season. Simmons has also previously enjoyed the matchup, and he had an easy 20 points in 29 minutes against Brooklyn the last time the teams met on Dec. 15.--Taavi Pailk - RotoBaller
