NEW YORK — Ben Simmons and Brandon Ingram say they haven’t been told who Philadelphia will take with the No. 1 pick, so all they can go on is what they’ve heard.
And Ingram was told not to do that.
“When I left the Sixers workout they told me not to listen to everybody, so I’m just listening to them and I don’t really read the reports that come out about anything else,” the Duke forward said.
The answer will come Thursday.
The freshmen are expected to be the top two selections in the NBA draft, and Simmons can’t wait to hear his name called.
