It hasn’t been a great season for Ben Simmons of the Brooklyn Nets.
Aside from some injuries, Simmons’ output on the court has been lackluster again.
But there is a prediction about which team he will score 20+ points against.
According to Bovada, per NBACentral, the odds say the first team that will allow Simmons to score 20+ points against them will be the Toronto Raptors.
The Raptors have +900 odds, followed by the Philadelphia 76ers with +1400, the New York Knicks with +1600, and the Boston Celtics with +1800.
The Charlotte Hornets, Washington Wizards, Chicago Bulls, and Atlanta Hawks also make the list.

The Nets play the Hornets on Tuesday night so will that be the time that Simmons posts more than 20?
So far this season, he has averaged just 5.3 points, 5.8 rebounds, and 7.0 assists per game.
Those are not the numbers that fans wanted to see, especially this season after multiple years of Simmons falling short.
He hasn’t been the same since his final year with the Sixers when he put up 14.3 points, 7.2 rebounds, and 6.9 assists.
Scoring more than 20 points against his former team would surely feel really good for Simmons but he would have to be consistent with that total for many games before fans believed in him again.
Nets followers have been waiting for Simmons to look like his old self and prove the critics wrong, but he consistently comes up short.
They are still hoping he will have a huge game and give a reminder of why he was once the No. 1 overall draft pick.
