Vegas, Polls Say Fans Won't Be Happy With 76ers Decision At No. 1

PHILADELPHIA (CBS) -- The majority of Philadelphia 76ers fans are not on the same page as Las Vegas.

According to Bovada LV, Ben Simmons is the favorite to be the first-overall pick in the NBA Draft at 5/8. Brandon Ingram's odds are listed at 5/4, while any other player is a distant 10/1.

Per voting on the radio.com poll questions during Wednesday's 94WIP Morning Show and 94WIP Mike & Ike Show, about 60-percent of fans want the Sixers to take Ingram.

However, fans voting on this CBSPhilly.com poll want Simmons.

The Sixers are "leaning heavily" toward Simmons, according to a report from BleacherReport.com.
