Take a look at Ben Simmons career stats. The 0 under 3-point percentage is difficult to overlook.
But imagine what happened in last weeks preseason game between the Philadelphia 76ers and the Guangzhou Loong Lions of the Chinese Basketball Association?
You bet he made one!
Everybody is suddenly speaking about Simmons getting a shooter that is fictitious, while he didnt score that 3-pointer against an NBA team.
And DraftKings Sportsbook has rolled out an NJ sports gambling market centered around Simmons shooting potential.
Did Sixers fans receive a glimpse of Ben Simmons? Or has been last weeks 3-pointer that is successful more like a one-hit miracle?
That is the assumption behind these DraftKings stocks stakes:
Keep in mind, the two possible bets mentioned previously only apply to regular-season games. Another 20 could be attempted by him through the preseason and also make 10 of these, however none of it counts.
In his past two seasons in Philadelphia, the 6-foot-10 point shield has attempted a total of 17 3s.
Clearly, those efforts will need to go way up in case Simmons is going to be a threat from beyond the arc.
Whether he suddenly attempts over 65 of these in one season remains to be viewed. Whats it worth the risk?
If Simmons drastically increases those shot efforts, making greater than 16.5 three-pointers during an 82-game regular year might be in reach. Right?
Well, DraftKings is prepared to choose the action.
In fact, once the 76ers open the regular season on??Oct. 23??from the??Milwaukee Bucks, the Simmons betting market isnt what everyone will be speaking about. In concept.
Both teams are favorites plus they are going at the Wells Fargo Center.
On newspaper, Philadelphia which makes it to the NBA Finals??will attract more gambling action.
Here are the Eastern Seminar futures from DraftKings:
Then there would be the NBA championship futures:
In the event the Sixers and??Joel Embiid??are going to live up to these high expectations, Simmons will once again must play a major part. Even the All-Star??is averaging 16.4 points, 8.5 rebounds, 7.9 assists for his career.
Shooting, bettors and maybe and the lack thereof, will come as an additional bonus to his group.
Only ask ESPNs Jalen Rose.
