This is the moment we've all been waiting for. The shot heard round the world. That's right, Ben Simmons hit a three-pointer in a regular-season game for the first time in his career.
This one is for all of those who have trusted the process from the very beginning ... and if you're rather new to it all, welcome.
We've been teased in the past - videos of Simmons training in the summer, shots when the team has been warming up, we even saw him sink one in the preseason, but never in a game where it matters. Many will argue if the shot truly counts because it was against the New York Knicks. Let me answer that for you: YES.
And, of course, social media instantly went into a frenzy because of this highly-anticipated moment.
Here are some of the best reactions we've seen:
