Jonathon Simmons Efficient in Game 6 Win
Jonathon Simmons was a monster for the Spurs Thursday night. With Kawhi Leonard (ankle) out, Simmons was inserted into the starting lineup and set the tone early with a huge dunk after blowing by Trevor Ariza. The undrafted second-year man out of the University of Houston had 18 points on 8-for-12 shooting to go along with his four assists and a plus-minus of +32. While it is definitely encouraging to see this type of play, it may be limited once again, as Leonard will be back with the Spurs for Game 1 of the Western Conference Finals.
