Ben Simmons Drops An Efficient 31 Points On Atlanta
5 years agoPhiladelphia 76ers guard Ben Simmons shot 10 of 15 from the field versus the Hawks on Thursday to finish with 31 points, six rebounds, five assists and four steals. The presence of Joel Embiid didn't seem to hinder Simmons' ability to attack the basket, as he finished off the loss an encouraging 11 of 13 from the stripe. For all the talks of his weak outside jumper, Simmons does pretty much everything else at an extremely high level, including a level of defense that should earn him a spot on an All-Defensive team. Philly's road woes continue at just 9-16 on the year compared to 22-2 at home, but they'll have a chance to enact some redemption with their next three games outside the Wells Fargo Center.
