Ben Simmons is arguably one of the most talented players in the NBA. His destructiveness and athleticism are phenomenal, not to mention his ability to score inside the paint and defend all positions.
During the Raptors series, Simmons was the only player who could limit the scoring of the reigning Finals MVP, a scintillating Kawhi Leonard. Kawhi shot just 48 percent from the field when guarded by Ben, whereas he put up at an astounding 73 percent against the rest of the team.
Other aspects of his game such as his court vision and dominance inside the paint allow him to dominate other, smaller point guards.
