Anfernee Simons

Active in his plan of punishing the Houston Rockets with signature stepbacks, pull-ups, and hook shots, Anfernee Simons’ offensive bingo board had only one more box to cross off: an above-the-rim demonstration. Presented with his opportunity after a double screen opens his options, the gifted scorer turns on the turbos, blowing past a Rockets big before soaring through the air for an explosive one-handed slam. In securing one of the finest outings of his entire season, the Portland Trail Blazers star erupted for 33 points (on just 20 shots), accompanying it with six rebounds, five assists, and four 3-pointers. Sublime in his production, Simons’ showing helped the Blazers steal a come-from-behind victory in double overtime on January 24, 2024.
