NBA Twitter Reacts To Ben Simmons Making His First NBA Three Pointer
Ben Simmons’ first two NBA seasons have been one of the best rookie and sophomore seasons in recent history. Everyone who was watching him play, knows that he could develop into a generational type of star. He’s got all the assets one needs to become that superstar in this league, besides a decent jumpshot.
This led to opponents not guarding Simmons’ three point shot at all, at times. In these two seasons, Simmons hasn’t made a three point shot. But in this past offseason, he was putting focus on his jumper and three point shot.
Then last night, the impossible happened. Ben Simmons made his first three pointer of his NBA career and the arena went wild!
As you can imagine, NBA Twitter reacted accordingly, and as always, the internet remained undefeated.
