I’m pretty much locked in on Ben Simmons as the Sixers’ number one pick. I think they are, too. And I think Simmons is, too, because he’s already signed an endorsement deal with Nike. He’s also featured in two Foot Locker ads debuting on Thursday.
In the first one, Karl-Anthony Towns, Devin Booker and D’Angelo Russell teach Simmons lessons about life after being drafted. Words won’t do it justice. Just watch:

In the second ad, Simmons talks to… himself.

Simmons is already showing that sense of humor, and I love it.
