Ben Simmons: ""Our goal is to get there [to the playoffs] and win"
Ben Simmons is ready to make his debut in the NBA after a season off due to a foot injury.
The 1st pick of the 2016 NBA Draft, one of the favorites for the Rookie of the Year award, is not worried about other rookies because he set the bar high for his career.
Per ESPN, "My goal is to be the best in the league," he told ESPN. "I'm not worried about other rookies -- I'm worried about the guys at the top, and that's where I want to be."
Simmons said if the stars aligned, the Sixers were primed to finally break their six-year playoffs drought.
"Physically I feel really good. [I am] ready to play and get the season started," he said. "I've just got to go out and work hard ... and if everyone in the team does the same thing, I think we can do great things.
"Our goal is to get there [to the playoffs] and win. We don't doubt each other, as long as we work hard we might [be able to].
