Ben Simmons

PG, Philadelphia Sixers

Ben Simmons scored a game-high 31 points on 10-of-15 shooting (11-for-13 FTs) to go with his six boards, five dimes and four steals in Thursday's 117-127 loss to the Hawks.

Simmons has cooled off as expected with Joel Embiid back in the lineup and Coach Brown is still trying to figure out ways to maximize both players. Tonight was a step in the right direction. A huge reason why Simmons' lines look so much better now is the fact that he's shooting at a much higher clip at the line. Tonight he went 11-for-13 at the line and hasn't dipped below .700 shooting since six games ago against the Knicks.
