Ben Simmons 31 Points Full Highlights (11/29/2017)
Ben Simmons stared at his coach in disbelief. “How many do I have to make?” Brett Brown, already in a sour mood, glared at Ben. “Was I not clear? Five thousand free throws.

“Hey rookie.” Mike James looked up at his teammate Tyler Ulis. As Tyler expected, Mike seemed annoyed by the “rookie” reference, given that the rookie was actually five years Tyler’s senior. “What’s up, Tyler?” Tyler smirked. “I just wanted you to know that with my strong play tonight, you’re probably going to go back to…

I prowl the dark streets of Denver, searching for the perfect target. The cans of spray paint rattle lightly in my backpack, cushioned by old t-shirts but still too loud for my taste. It’s three o’clock in the morning, and I’m unlikely to encounter another person, but I’m still on edge. Finally, I find a…
