Keys to the Game

The Sixers have yet to win a game in the NBA's premiere summer league, largely because they haven't had a reliable No. 1 option on offense. Simmons is ready to seize that responsibility. He showed he's capable when he trusted his jumper and scored 18 points against the Chicago Bulls.

D-League Select, meanwhile, needs to focus on defending the paint against Philly's trio of bigs: Simmons, Christian Wood and Richaun Holmes.
