Ben Simmons said he did not shot well from the line in the series against the Atlanta Hawks.

Per ESPN, “I ain’t shoot well from the line this series,” Simmons said following the Sixers’ 103-96 Game 7 loss to the Atlanta Hawks. “Offensively, I wasn’t there. I didn’t do enough for my teammates. … There’s a lot of things that I need to work on.”

The three-time All-Star was putting it mildly.

He shot 15-for-45 (33%) on foul shots against Atlanta and 34.2% from the line for the 2021 playoffs overall, accounting for the worst free throw percentage in NBA playoff history for a player with at least 70 attempts, according to research by ESPN Stats & Information.
