Brooklyn Nets star Ben Simmons has always been confident in his basketball abilities, especially after proving his dominance during his time with the Philadelphia 76ers. However, since joining the Nets, he has frequently found himself under the microscope, drawing criticism from fans whether he is in practice, warmups, or playing in games, even when dealing with injuries.

Before the Nets’ matchup against the New York Knicks at Madison Square Garden, Simmons became the center of attention during warmups. To the surprise of many, Simmons missed every shot he attempted.

Unfortunately for Simmons and the Nets, his pregame struggles seemed to carry over into the game itself. The Knicks defeated the Nets in a closely contested 128-124 battle.

As the video of Simmons’ warmup performance circulated on social media, fans were quick to criticize the former All-Star. Many expressed disbelief at how someone with his shooting struggles could have made it to the NBA.

Some fans used the moment to reflect on his career struggle, while others turned the clip into a source of humor and entertainment.

Ben Simmons Struggles As Nets Fall To Knicks

The Brooklyn Nets had high hopes for Ben Simmons when they acquired him, inspired by his strong performances with the Philadelphia 76ers. However, Simmons has yet to deliver the impactful performances expected of him.

In the Nets’ recent game against the New York Knicks, Simmons’ struggles were on full display. Over 25 minutes of play, he managed only four points, seven rebounds, and five assists. The loss brought their record to 5-8. This season, Simmons has averaged 5.9 points, 6 rebounds, and 6.9 assists per game. It’s a contrast to his days as a dominant force with the 76ers.
