  • 76ers' Anfernee Simons: Productive off bench

    Simons closed with 13 points (5-10 FG, 3-8 3Pt) and two rebounds in 25 minutes during Tuesday's 106-100 victory over the Knicks.

    Simons made his regular-season debut for Philadelphia after dealing with hamstring tightness during the preseason. The veteran guard provided an immediate scoring boost, finishing as the 76ers' fourth-leading scorer while committing no turnovers. His eight three-point attempts highlights his role as a perimeter scoring option, though the absence of assists or defensive statistics limits his fantasy appeal beyond points and triples.

  • 76ers' Anfernee Simons: Available to play

    Simons (hamstring) is available for Tuesday's regular-season opener in New York.

    Simons is set to debut for Philadelphia after signing with the organization as a free agent in the offseason. Between the Celtics and Bulls in 2025-26, Simons averaged 14.3 points, 2.5 rebounds and 2.4 assists while connecting on 38.5 percent of his three-point attempts across 55 regular-season appearances. He'll operate as a scoring spark for the Sixers' second unit behind starters Tyrese Maxey and VJ Edgecombe when they visit the Knicks on Opening Night

  • 76ers' Anfernee Simons: Sitting out Monday

    Simons (rest) won't play in Monday's preseason game against the Knicks, Chris Hine of The Minnesota Star Tribune reports.

    Simons will join Joel Embiid, LeBron James and Tyrese Maxey on the sidelines for the preseason opener. It's unclear whether Simons is dealing with an injury or not, but if he isn't, his exclusion from the opener would signal that his spot in the rotation is fairly secure heading into his first season with Philadelphia.

  • 76ers' Anfernee Simons: Lined up for key bench role

    Simons is set to play a pivotal reserve role for the 76ers, per Adam Aaronson of PhillyVoice.com.

    Simons ended 2025-26 on the shelf with the Bulls due to a fractured wrist, but he's prepping for a significant bench role with his new team. The sharpshooter made a grand total of five starts all of last year, and he's likely to play a similar role in 2026-27 behind VJ Edgecombe and Tyrese Maxey. Simons has never averaged more than four rebounds or one steal in a season and has averaged more than five assists just once, so his style of play remains more conducive to points leagues.
