Excellent numbers. For comparison, I bolded Blake Griffin's combine numbers and placed them next to Simmons'. 

HT (with shoes) 6-10 BG 6-10
HT (without) 6-9
WT 240 BG 248
BF% 7.9 BG 8.2

Wingspan 7'0.25 BG 6' 11.25"
Standing Reach 9'0.5 BG 8' 9"

No Step Vert 37 BG 32
Max Vert 41.5 BG 35.5
Bench 185lb 13x
Lane Agility 11.06
3/4 Sprint 2.9

  • Boston Celtics= Championships, nothing less.
wow what an athlete.

just incredible.

TP for the comparison
"We are lucky we have a very patient GM that isn't willing to settle for being good and coming close. He wants to win a championship and we have the potential to get there still with our roster and assets."

quoting 'Greg B' on RealGM after 2017 trade deadline.
Read that last line again. One more time.

With that size he probably projects to that playmaking 4 that has become popular today. Similar to Green in GS, Blake without Paul, LeBron, Durant, George, Leonard etc. when they play the 4 for stretches.

Not the best wingspan/reach for height.  Seems like has the body type/explosiveness of Dwight Powell but with skills

Not a lock at #1. Skal is breathing down his neck

Let's not forget Jaylen Brown. Could absolutely be a FORCE, once the year starts.

School #s are always inflated. I'll wait till NBA combine.

Those numbers are not accurate. They're waaaaay exaggerated. Check out everyone else's measurements and athletic test numbers. They must have 12 NBA prospects on that team. Even the coach had a 40 inch vertical.

It'd be surprising if he participated in the NBA combine.

Athletic test he may balk at but everyone is expected to be measured and medically tested

I've said it a million times but Ingram would be a great get for us. I'm usually fashionably right at picking guys a year or 2 in advance and I just want to make sure that you guys watch out for Ingram...and know that I picked him last year to be my cinderella/dark horse pick.

Not the past two years it hasn't.  Wiggins, Parker, and Embiid didn't attend in 2014, and Towns and Okafor didn't attend in 2015.  That's 5 of the top 6 picks the last two drafts, so it doesn't seem to have hurt to stay away.
