Ben Simmons To Skip Summer Olympics
3 years agoPhiladelphia 76ers guard Ben Simmons will not suit up for Australia for the 2021 Summer Olympics in Tokyo. Instead, Simmons will head to Los Angeles, where he will spend the entire offseason working on "skill development." The report comes after the Aussie was criticized for his offensive woes throughout the postseason, including going a dreadful 34.2 percent from the foul line, a significant decrease from the regular season. While the 24-year-old still has plenty to offer from a fantasy perspective, notably on the defensive end, as a passer, and on the glass, he will need to address his shooting issues moving ahead.
