Misc: Sixers top pick injured

-

No. 1 overall pick Ben Simmons broke a bone in his right foot during the Philadelph­ia 76ers’ final training camp scrimmage. Simmons fractured the fifth metatarsal bone. It was unclear how long the former LSU star will be sidelined.

Simmons’ injury is the latest blow to a franchise that has been beset in recent years by injuries to top draft picks. . . .

Jake Browning threw for 210 yards and three touchdowns, Myles Gaskin added 100 yards and two scores, and No. 10 Washington was dominant on both sides, overwhelmi­ng No. 7 Stanford, 44-6, last night in Seattle.

After months of hype, Washington (5-0, 2-0 Pac-12) showed it was ready for a return to the national stage. And the Huskies did it emphatical­ly, handing Stanford (3-1, 2-1) its worst loss since a 41-3 setback against Arizona State in 2007.
