76ers' Anfernee Simons: Productive on both ends Saturday
Simons finished with 19 points (6-12 FG, 5-9 3Pt, 2-2 FT), two assists and three steals across 25 minutes in Saturday's 109-104 victory over Charlotte.
LeBron James (rest) and Joel Embiid (foot) did not suit up for this contest, so there were extra scoring opportunities up for grabs. While Simons couldn't hit the 20-point mark for the third consecutive game, he still shined on both ends of the floor. The 27-year-old is now averaging 12.0 points, 2.0 rebounds and 1.3 assists while shooting a career-best 43.8 percent from deep over 24.7 minutes per contest in seven regular-season games in 2026-27. With the 76ers loaded with All-Stars, Simons likely won't be as productive as he was during his time in Portland, though he should continue to get plenty of playing time off the bench.

76ers' Anfernee Simons: Another 20-point game
Simons accumulated 21 points (7-11 FG, 5-8 3Pt, 2-2 FT), two rebounds and one assist over 31 minutes during Friday's 98-93 victory over New York.
Simons scored 20-plus points while connecting on five or more three-pointers for a second consecutive game, and he was the 76ers' second-leading scorer Friday behind Tyrese Maxey (21 points). Simons played a season-high 31 minutes due to the absence of Jaylen Brown (knee), and the former will have opportunities this season to operate in an expanded role in games where one of Maxey, Brown or LeBron James were to sit.

76ers' Anfernee Simons: Goes for season-high 20 points
Simons notched 20 points (7-11 FG, 6-10 3Pt), three rebounds, one assist and one steal over 27 minutes during Wednesday's 114-109 victory over the Pacers.
Simons produced his best game of the season, scoring 20 points, including six triples. It appears as though Nick Nurse is comfortable running a shallow rotation, meaning Simons should at least be playing meaningful minutes on most nights. While this was certainly a strong performance, he had scored a total of just 11 points in his previous three games.

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.

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.
