Seth Curry in Australia: Ben Simmons doesn’t need a jump shot to be ‘unstoppable’

In an interview earlier last week, Seth Curry told an Australian reporter that Ben Simmons, his teammate in Philadelphia and Brooklyn, could be “unstoppable” this season with or without a jump shot ... as long he has can make a fair share of free throws.

“If he can add pulling down free throws at the next clip, it’s going to permit him to be unstoppable as soon as he places his head down.” Curry told the Herald Sun in Melbourne, Simmons hometown. Curry is in Melbourne and Sydney as part of a promotional tour for Foot Locker.

Curry who played with Simmons in Philadelphia in 2020-21 and was traded with him to Brooklyn last February insisted that the 6’11” guard doesn’t need a jump shot.
