The Return of Ben Simmons

The No. 1 overall pick lived up to the hype in his debut on Monday night against the Celtics before succumbing to cramps in both calves. In just under 24 minutes, Simmons nearly recording a double-double, totaling 10 points and eight rebounds, to go along with five assists. He was also a perfect 6-for-6 from the free-throw line.

All eyes will be on the former LSU Tiger, as he's expected to return tonight in his second action as a member of the Sixers.

During the Celtics game, Simmons displayed his impressive passing ability, having some highlight-reel quality dimes. He'll be the focus of attention as he's expected to return for the Sixers’ final matchup in Utah.
