Ben Simmons and his Kings teammate get roasted over horrible jumpers

Ben Simmons and Sacramento Kings teammate Daeqwon Plowden drew online criticism following training camp footage that captured their poor jump-shooting form. Simmons, who missed the entire 2025-26 season, recently returned to the NBA by signing a one-year, $3.5 million contract with Sacramento.

A clip shared by Brenden Nunes of Sactown Sports 1140 showed Simmons repeatedly missing three-point attempts as he works off rust. Yardbarker notes that while Simmons is a career 55.8 percent shooter from the field, he has made just 5 of 36 career three-point attempts, highlighting that Sacramento did not sign him to stretch the floor.
