Ben  Simmons’ historic afternoon leads the Philadelphia 76ers to victory.

Ben Simmons and the Philadelphia 76ers shined in a come-back win against the Nets in Brooklyn.

The tenacity the squad has been showing on defense is impressive with the size this team has, with or without star center Joel Embiid. Furkan Korkmaz continues to contribute off the bench, with 10 points and a pivotal three-pointer to seal the game.

Even Horford, who has struggled of late, bounced back in an intense divisional matinee.

The Sixers’ next game is Wednesday, Jan. 22 at 7:00PM E.T. in Toronto.
