I think in the long run he'll be a starting 4 and play
some 3 each game too if needed.

Early in his career he may start at the 3 depending on what team he lands on.

3 and 4 depending on lineups. Has the potential to be a playmaker from those positions as well. The only thing I'm not sure about is his defense, but I think he'll be a star player no matter what.

He'll play that positionless LeBron role, filling in wherever he's needed.

I haven't seen him play at all but will be tuning into LSU games this season. They play OU late in the year. Please tell me he isn't a tweener type similar to Michael Beasley, Derrick Williams, and Aaron Gordon? The C's need a true 3 that can put the ball into the basket or a dynamic big man.

Do you guys think if we don't land a top pick Danny will try and trade into the top 3? He was aggressive this year so most likely gonna be exciting.

He's listed at 6'10" and he's 19.  Not impossible for him to still grow an inch or 2.

I want this guy.  I want him badly.

I hope so, but look how much trouble we had trading into the top 10 last year. I really like Simmons, but he's a freshman in college. If it means giving up all of our future picks, I'd rather save them.
