We are still ten months away from the upcoming NBA draft, but it is never too early to take a look into next season’s top prospects. The 2016 draft class is headlined by two major stars: Kentucky center Skal Labissière and LSU forward Ben Simmons. The two led ESPN’s Top 100 Recruiting Ranks for 2015, Simmons ranking number one and Labissiere following right behind.
In this week’s scouting report, we will break down the game of Australian native Simmons.
At the Nike Hoop Summit in Portland, Oregon, Simmons measured in at 6‘10, 239 pounds. The Aussie plays positionless basketball and has the ability to handle the ball like a point guard in a 6‘10 body.
