Clemson basketball will go as far as Aamir Simms leads them.

Clemson basketball senior Aamir Simms brought a lot of hope when he decided to return for his senior season after going through the NBA draft process. His coming back didn’t surprise anyone paying attention as he isn’t on the NBA radar.

That isn’t a slight to him, he can still go have a lucrative and successful basketball career on other continents like former All-ACC guard Malcolm Delaney has, but the NBA wasn’t interested.
