Free Throws: Steve Nash wants Ben Simmons and Nic Claxton to get to line this season

Steve Nash is ready to test his two worst free throw shooters at the line this season ... and he has plenty of confidence in both players.

Throughout the four days at training camp at HSS Training Facility in Industry City, Brooklyn’s coaching staff has worked diligently with both Ben Simmons and Nic Claxton on free throw shooting and shooting from the floor. The work each individual has put into shooting didn’t just begin at camp. It’s been a staple of their off-season.

Simmons, who was heavily critiqued for his poor shooting throughout his Sixers tenure, posts a career 59.
