Ben Simmons Scores 16 Points With Supporting Stats
7 years agoPhiladelphia 76ers point guard/forward Ben Simmons played well in London against the Celtics, scoring 16 points on an above-average 8-for-12 shooting. Simmons wasn't his usual passing or rebounding self with only two boards and three assists in this one. The defensive numbers were there, however, as he came away with two steals and two blocks in his 28 minutes of action. He did commit three turnovers in the loss, but owners have come to expect a fair amount of miscues from the rookie at this point. Simmons is probably still the favorite for Rookie of the Year, although guys like forward Jayson Tatum and guard Donovan Mitchell are closing the gap.
