Brett Brown on Ben Simmons as power forward: There’s nobody faster in the NBA

Philadelphia 76ers head coach: So to always have the ball and dribble it up against five guys ... to do that dilutes some of his potent weapons

Philadelphia 76ers Ben Simmon has been playing as power forward in practices inside the NBA bubble at Walt Disney World Resort.

«He’s so dynamic – head coach Brett Brown said on a conference call with reporters – Let’s just talk about running. There’s nobody faster in the NBA. So to always have the ball and dribble it up against five guys … to do that dilutes some of his potent weapons. So, watching him fly up the floor, watching him and Joel Embiid play off each other, has been a really good look. I think they’ve been fantastic together».

If Simmons plays as power forward Al Horford will start from the beanch and Shake Milton will replace him in the starting five.
