Speaking of Ben Simmons and his hilariousness, The Inquirer‘s Keith Pompey is reporting through sources that the Sixers worked out Ben Simmons this morning.

This is off the heels that Simmons wouldn’t work out for any team jockeying for his services in the NBA Draft this Thursday. He’s had guys like Tracy McGrady and Kevin Hart – yes, the comedian – put him down constantly for not wanting to work out with any of the teams.
So, either Simmons worked out with the Sixers due to outside pressure, or he was told they were drafting him first overall and this was just a courtesy from him.
This will probably make LeBron James gush a little bit more.
UPDATE: Confirmed.
