Simmons has never been a great shooter, either from the perimeter or the free-throw line. This was evident in the 2021 Eastern Conference semifinals. The Atlanta Hawks capitalized on his shooting deficiencies. To summarize, his poor shooting played a massive role in the Sixers failing to advance to the conference finals. However, Nash is not worried about the Aussie’s shooting skills. According to ESPN’s Nick Friedell, the Nets head coach is looking to exploit Simmons’ versatility....

The timing for the sign could not be better for trying to appeal to Pennsylvania football fans, as the Eagles demolished the Cowboys with a 23-9 victory on Sunday, and the Cowboys will face off against the Pittsburgh Steelers on Sunday. According to The Philly Voice, a group called Rural America 2020 has taken credit for the sign.
