Ben Simmons pours in 21, grabs seven boards to lead Sixers to victory

Ben Simmons keyed a come-from-behind victory for the 76ers over the Heat on Thursday with 21 points, seven boards, and four assists.
Fantasy Impact:
Without all-world big man Joel Embiid, Philadelphia needed to rely on Simmons to carry a heavier-than-usual offensive load, and Simmons did not disappoint. He even attempted a few jump shots, much to the delight of the Philadelphia faithful (though the shots didn't fall). Simmons capitalized on a key alley-oop layup from T.J. McConnell late in the fourth period to help put Miami away for good. He'll look to build off Thursday's success when the Sixers take on Portland on Saturday.
