Brooklyn Nets sharpshooter Seth Curry says Australian teammate Ben Simmons faces a “challenging” return to the NBA after a year-long absence | SMHsport
“There are always challenges. Foremost, he has missed a whole season. It is going to be a challenge getting his rhythm back playing basketball,” Curry said.
Curry, the younger brother of four-time NBA championship winner Steph, was a 76ers teammate of Simmons before Curry found himself packaged with Andre Drummond and two first-round picks when sent to the Nets as part of the blockbuster trade involving Simmons and then Net, James Harden.
“He creates a lot of three-point shots for his teammates. Obviously, it helps me a lot, to get good shots. The pick-and-roll game, and the hand-off game, the two-man game … he is a good guy rolling to the rim and finishing. Defensively … he can guard a lot of positions.” “Patty has been around for the last few months here in Brooklyn – [he’s] a great leader [with] a lot of energy,” Curry said. “Obviously, [he’s] a veteran and I am trying to learn as much as I can from him. We had some good moments last season, especially when guys were injured at the end of the regular season.
