BEN SIMMONS RECEIVES MORE HIGH PRAISE IN THE NBA

NBA legend Dr J has described Australia’s Ben Simmons as a once-in-a-decade, or even once-in-a-lifetime player.
Simmons has led Philadelphia to a victory over Brooklyn, its 11th straight win, the first time the franchise has achieved that feat since 1990.
The 21-year-old finished with 15 points, 12 assists and six rebounds… and seems to be warming to the idea of being named Rookie of the Year.
“Umm I think it’s definitely right. It’s pretty accurate.”
