Wins 2021 Dunk Contest Simons took home the Slam Dunk Contest crown at halftime of Sunday's All-Star Game.
Impact With no fans and socially distanced judges, the event didn't carry its normal weight, but all three of Simons, Cassius Stanley and Obi Toppin got up for some impressive dunks. Toppin and Simons vanquished Stanley in the opening round, with Simons sealing his spot by donning a Tracy McGrady Raptors jersey and throwing down a tribute dunk honoring the Hall-of-Famer. In the final, Toppin opted for a between-the-legs dunk from just inside the free throw line, while Simons took a more creative approach, rising up in an attempt to plant a kiss on the front of the rim before throwing it down. While he ultimately whiffed on the kiss by a few inches, the judges still favored the third-year guard in a 3-2 decision.

Minutes trending downward Simons scored six points (2-3 FG, 2-3 3Pt) over 10 minutes in Thursday's win over the Kings.
Impact Simons was efficient on his field-goal tries -- which all came from deep -- in the victory, but he didn't spend enough time on the court to make a viable fantasy impact. The third-year guard is averaging only 10.8 minutes per contest over his past five games, which has resulted in a nosedive in fantasy value. Simons had built some intrigue during a nine-game stretch in February during which he drained 2.9 three-pointers per game and averaged 12.1 points per contest, but that now feels like the distant past.
