In his 172nd NBA Ben Simmons finally hit a 3-point shot.

Ben Simmons hit a three-point basket in a NBA game, against the New York Knicks, with 8:20 to play in the first quarter.

I saw it go in with my own two eyes, a swish, nothing but net.

With :07 seconds left on the shot clock, Simmons pulled up from behind the three-point line, right in front of the Sixers bemch and hit his first three-point basket in a actual NBA game.

It was the first time he had attempted a catch-and-shoot 3-point shot, according to ESPN Stats & Information research.

As you can expect the crowd went wild.
