VIDEO: Ben Simmons Actually Made a 3-Pointer in a Somewhat Real Game
By Scott Rogust
Remember when Philadelphia 76ers star Ben Simmons displayed apprehension and struggles from behind the 3-point line last season? Well, it's time to stop the presses! During the 76ers' preseason game against the Guangzhou Loong Lions, Simmons dribbled the ball toward the 3-point line and saw a plethora of space in front of him. What he did next is actual history.
Simmons' teammates and the fans inside Wells Fargo Center collectively lost their minds at the sight of him actually making a shot from behind the arc. The guard has worked on his jump shot throughout the summer, and it looks to have paid off.
Granted, this is the preseason, but Ben Simmons' jumper looks much improved. Let's see how it is throughout the 82-game regular season.
