Norman Powell says that the light bulb clicked on for Ben Simmons “as soon as he checked in”
Powell mentioned Simmons ability to read the game, relieving James Harden when he was doubled, talking with Powell, and his defensive playmaking, especially after halftime. pic.x.com/VGIPXhBjAc – 1:33 AM

Tyronn Lue praised Ben Simmons for his IQ, making the right play consistently, and his aggression.
That praise is something that was echoed throughout the locker room all night tonight. pic.x.com/ha5pK3vg32 – 1:13 AM

Ben Simmons: “Just being here, and the guys fighting… We were down 20 at one point, and guys stayed with it. These games can be dangerous. You’re going into the All-Star break. But guys stayed with it and finished the right way.” pic.x.com/K3vvcXENaH – 1:05 AM

Asked Tyronn Lue about balancing 1 and 5 for Ben Simmons. T Lue also added that he has no concerns about Ben/Zu lineups pic.x.com/M5Vd5HSoAb – 7:59 PM
