Ben Simmons Scores 22 Points And Dishes Seven Assists
7 years agoPhiladelphia 76ers point guard/forward Ben Simmons has been a pleasant surprise for fantasy managers this year. Simmons scored 22 points on Sunday, as he shot 10-for-16 from the field while also dishing seven assists. In his rookie campaign, the expectation was for the 76ers to be cautious with all their rising stars, especially after Simmons missed the entire 2016-2017 season with a broken foot. However, Simmons is tied for the team lead in games played at 45 and averages 35.2 minutes per game. Not only has he consistently been on the floor, but he offers incredibly efficient scoring and nice rebounding to go with his 7.4 assists per game. That is very impressive for a rookie.
