Ben Simmons should be a contender for NBA’s DPOY award

As the NBA comes closer to a return we will see the final push for the end of season awards occur as well. It is uncertain how much weight the remaining games in Orlando will carry toward the decisions, but all players will be looking to kick off the rust and play their best as soon as possible. The MVP seems to be between Giannis and LeBron, Ja Morant will most likely take ROY, but the Defensive Player of the year race is a little more open. However, this race seems to be short of a guy who is more than worthy of being in the conversation: Ben Simmons.
