PG 2 - Ben Simmons (Philadelphia 76ers)

Philadelphia 76ers are looking to go on a run

The Philadelphia 76ers have having a good season till now. They are currently fourth in the Eastern Conference, with a 25-14 record.

They have won only six of their last 10 matches but have managed to win 2 games on the trot. One man who has been playing really well for them this season is Ben Simmons.

Simmons has been playing really well for the 76ers this season, continuing his solid play from his rookie year.

He is averaging 16 points per game this season, along with a solid 8 assists and 9 rebounds per game. Even though his lack of a jumper has been a huge concern for basketball fans everywhere, he has started to show it off in recent games.

In the win over the Phoenix Suns, Simmons scored a huge 29 points, along with 6 assists, 3 rebounds and a big block.

The 76ers hope that even if his jumper is a work in progress, his game keep steady at this level and he provides the superb support that he has been providing to Joel Embiid.

Alternate pick: Mike Conley (Memphis Grizzlies)
