Ben Simmons Taste-Tests Cheesesteak on 'Tonight Show,' Approves

Kyle NewportJun 3, 2018

If there's one thing people know about the city of Philadelphia, it's that its residents love their cheesesteaks.

That means any athlete who winds up playing in the City of Brotherly Love better give the city staple a fair shot—because it's kind of a big deal there.

It was reported Tuesday that the Philadelphia 76ers have informed former LSU star Ben Simmons they will take him with the No. 1 overall pick in Thursday's NBA draft. Assuming the Sixers select the 19-year-old forward, it will be up to him to find the best cheesesteaks in town.

Fortunately for Simmons, Jimmy Fallon gave him a taste of a popular Philadelphia joint, Dalessandro's Steaks.

Did Simmons approve? "I could live in Philly."

In other words, two thumbs up.
