1st- Ben Simmons: 14.5 pts, 7 reb, 8.5 asst, PER 18.88, 9% 3pt %

2nd-Brandon Ingram: 25.3 pts, 7 reb, 4 asst, PER 22.05, 40% 3pt %

3rd- Jaylen Brown: 20.6 pts, 7 reb, 2 asst, PER 19.70, 40% 3pt %

Ben Simmons was supposed to be guaranteed superstar. He started off great but has not improved. Brandon Ingram, people called a bust too quickly, has improved every year and is now the 10th highest scorer in the entire NBA. Jaylen Brown has developed a consistent jumper and is basically untradeable now.

If you don't have a serviceable jump shot can you really be a superstar? Same applies to college.

Developing that jumper was huge for Brown, as well as Fox.

As a Sixer fan I reluctantly agree. He also is hampering Embiid, their spacing is terrible. And somehow they thought getting bigger with Horford was a good move.

Simmons is an amazing talent and athlete but you would have to surround him with lots of scoring. Plus there is the Kardashian curse.
