Philadelphia 76ers superstar Ben Simmons wore this blue Icon Edition jersey for six games during his rookie season of 2017-18. Simmons wore this jersey on March 13th, 15th, 21st, 26th, 28th, and April 4th. The Sixers went 5-1 in this stretch, no doubt buoyed by their point forward’s averages of 12 points, 9.5 rebounds, and 9.8 assists in that six-game spell. On March 13th and 15th Simmons turned in back-to-back triple-doubles, putting up 10 points, 13 boards, and 10 assists in a 101-98 home loss to the Indiana Pacers on the 13th and 13 points, 10 rebounds, and 12 assists in a 118-110 victory against the Knicks at Madison Square Garden on the 15th. The March 21st contest was a 119-105 home win against the Grizzlies, made possible by Simmons’ 13/7/9 performance and game-high +28 plus/minus. On March 26th, Simmons scored seven points with 13 boards and 11 dimes in a 123-104 win at home against the Nuggets, and 13/8/10 in a second win over the Knicks on March 28th at the Wells Fargo Center. On April 4th, Simmons led the Sixers to a comfortable 115-108 win over the Pistons thanks to his 16/6/7 performance.

Simmons finished the 2017-18 season with an incredible line of 15.8 points, 8.1 rebounds, and 8.2 assists per game. Along with fellow young sensations Joel Embiid and Dario Saric, Simmons led the Sixers to a 52-30 record, a 24-win improvement over the previous season, and a shock appearance in the Eastern Conference Semifinals. For his troubles, Simmons was awarded the 2017-18 Rookie of the Year award in a landslide over Donovan Mitchell and Jayson Tatum.
