Easy Bet: Ben Simmons 100/1 to Make First 3PT Tonight

Prop bets. Love them. Hate them. Take advantage of them. PlaySugarhouse Sportsbook has installed 100-to-1 odds that Ben Simmons will make a three pointer tonight against the LA Lakers.
That seems like the biggest steal of the century. Simmons, of course, has attempted one “three pointer” on the season – a heave from near half-court in a loss to the Nuggets. In fairness, Ben has thrown up twelve three-point attempts in his career, though many of them have come from beyond half-court. Perhaps the entire Kardashian/Jenner court will be in attendance and provide some magic for young Ben. Will Kanye yell, “Shoot, you coward!”? Tune in to see.
Either way, we’re at the patronizing real odds (not those fake Harper odds) portion of Ben Simmons’ three-point journey. Shoot your shot, kid, sometimes, as you know, it goes in.
