Brett Brown Admits That He Has Failed Ben Simmons

Simmons made his first career three-pointer against the New York Knicks on November 20. It was followed by a game on December 7 against the Cleveland Cavaliers where Simmons had a career-high 34 points in a blowout victory with the final score being 141-94.

Simmons’ highlight of the game was a catch-and-shoot three-point shot to give the Sixers a commanding 61-28 lead with three minutes and 41 seconds left in the half.

“You can pass it along to his agent, his family and his friends, and to him,” Brown said afterward. “I want a three-point shot a game, minimum. The pull-up twos, I’m fine with whatever is open. But I’m interested in the three-point shot.”
