Philadelphia 76ers star Ben Simmons got physical with Toronto Raptors guard Kyle Lowry in the first half of the team’s win in Game 3.

Lowry appeared to box out Simmons during a shot and the tall Australian guard fell down. But when Simmons attempted to get up, he elbowed Lowry in the groin, causing the Raptors player to go down in pain.

Lowry had seven points, five rebounds and five assists and was 2-of-10 from the field.
