Philadelphia 76ers: Ben Simmons is improving without a 3-point shot

While Markelle Fultz‘s summer work got the most attention, Ben Simmons was also working hard to expand his game ahead of his second season with the Philadelphia 76ers. At media day, Simmons touched on improvements he’s looking to make — including his jump shot.

After training with his bother Liam, some fans had high hopes for Simmons and his reworked jumper. Unfortunately, that aspect of his game isn’t ready yet. The 6-foot-10 point guard will instead focus on his skill set closer to the basket.

Considering Simmons has never put serious effort into fixing his jump shot, expecting an immediate fix was ill-advised.
