Ben Simmons: the next LeBron, 76ers missing piece … Philly Bust (Patreon)

Ben Simmons has had an odd career. After a horrific 2021 Eastern Conference Semifinals loss at home against the Atlanta Hawks, what followed was a head-spinning offseason filled with finger-pointing, reports of mental health issues, and a city turning on their once bright star, leaving Ben wanting out of Philly. It was a messy situation, and whether or not you believe all the blame unfairly fell on Ben’s shoulders, his time as a Sixer is seen as a failure.

However, failure often comes from great expectations, and Ben had lofty hopes placed upon him as he entered the league. He grew from an unknown international prospect to dominating competition stateside. Dubbed the next LeBron James. The final missing piece for a rebuilding franchise searching for its first title in decades. Let’s meet those versions of Ben Simmons in the Prism.

Hope y'all enjoy :)
