The celebration was a little like when that 7-year-old soccer player who mostly stands in the corner counting dandelions somehow accidentally scores a goal off his knee. But this was no kid — it was NBA superstar Ben Simmons lifting the so-called curse (and doubt) about his 3-point shooting.
Yup, Big Ben knocked one down, having been given enough space by the defender to park two Range Rovers in. You givin’ it to me? I’ll take it, says Simmons, and fan/teammate insanity ensues.
Simmons has been practicing, no doubt. And he’s planning on adding this element to his already All-Star NBA status. Look out.
