Ben Simmons has enjoyed his best game of this NBA season, claiming bragging rights over Josh Giddey in the Brooklyn Nets' 120-112 defeat of the Chicago Bulls.
Targeting his first injury-free season since joining the Nets in 2022, Simmons came close to his first triple-double since last January as Brooklyn improved to 3-3 under new coach Jordi Fernandez.
The Australian flaunted his trademark ability to create for teammates en route to a game-high 11 assists. As a Net, he has only ever recorded more assists once before.
