Look: Ben Simmons jerseys selling for huge discount in Philly
Ben Simmons seems to be about as good as gone from the Philadelphia 76ers. At least one retailer is acting accordingly.
NBC 10 anchor John Clark shared a photo on Twitter Friday that shows Ben Simmons jerseys are in the 50 percent off rack at the Philadelphia airport.

Simmons’ jerseys now have a home next to the excess Carson Wentz Eagles jerseys. Wentz was traded to Indianapolis over the offseason and, shockingly, is already hurt.
Simmons was the No. 1 pick by the Sixers in 2016 but has struggled with his shot throughout his career. Things came to a head during the playoffs when Simmons refused to shoot.
Now reports say Simmons will no longer report to the Sixers. After reading that story, even 50 percent off seems overpriced.
