Sixers’ Ben Simmons named to All-NBA Third Team, Joel Embiid snubbed

The 76ers have two of the brightest stars in the game in Joel Embiid and Ben Simmons and they bank their success on their talent and level of play. Simmons’ all-around play and all-around importance to the team earned him a spot on the All-NBA Third Team . Simmons joins Jimmy Butler, Jayson Tatum, Rudy Gobert, and Russell Westbrook on the team. What is a little surprising is that Embiid was not named to any of the All-NBA Teams. While he did have an off-year by his standards, he still averaged a gaudy 23 points, 11.6 rebounds, and 3.0 assists while being named an All-Star for the third consecutive season
