Ben Simmons (back) records triple-double in return to lineup

After sitting out Tuesday night's game against Detroit due to lower back tightness, Ben Simmons scores 14, adding 13 rebounds and 11 assists, in Philadelphia's 123-108 loss to Milwaukee.

Fantasy Impact:

Simmons owners were certainly relieved to see the Sixers' do-it-all point guard return to the lineup and lead all players in minutes Wednesday night. In 38 minutes of action, Simmons shot 40 percent (6-for-15) from the floor and only 33 percent (2-for-6) from the free-throw line. While the low shooting percentage is less than ideal, seeing Simmons return to the lineup with a bang as he posted his second triple-double of the young season is sure to restore confidence for owners who worried that Simmons might need time to return to his normal standards. He remains a rare fantasy contributor in almost every major category.
