Philadelphia 76ers‘ forward Ben Simmons may not only be the No. 1 pick in this year's draft, but may also be the top rookie in winning fans. Even after only having played in the Summer League to show for his NBA career, he may already have lifelong fans, thanks to his very kind gesture to a kid in a mall.

The 6'10 forward didn't need to pay for it, and could have just left the store after the brothers had a photo op with him, but that's just not the kind of guy that he is. Instead, he not only made their day, but gave them an incredible story then can tell for the rest of their lives.
