Simons recorded 16 points (6-9 FG, 4-6 3Pt), three rebounds and two assists across 23 minutes Sunday in the Trail Blazers' 116-113 win over the Knicks.

EDGE Analysis

The minutes were a new season high for Simons, who looks primed to see at least a slightly increased role on the second unit while CJ McCollum (foot) is out for at least one month. Though he took advantage of the playing time Sunday, Simons has largely struggled in the minimal opportunities he's received this season. Over 12 appearances, Simons is averaging 5.2 points in 11.6 minutes per game, but he's shooting just 35.6 percent from the field.
