SIMMONS STARS AGAIN IN PLAYOFF SERIES

He’s been called “average” in the half court – but Ben Simmons today hit back at critics and a hostile Brooklyn crowd putting on a show as the 76ers went 2-1 up in their playoff series against the Nets.

In the absence of Philly’s All-Star centre Joel Embiid, the Aussie sunk 31 points – his highest ever post-season score.

A fired-up Simmons leading the 76ers to a 131-115 win.
