  I disagree, I’m expecting him to be a real good player at KU before he leaves for the draft, whenever he chooses to leave. He was only 17 last season just coming over from Ukraine. Now he’s been in the system, is 6’8 shooter with sneaky athleticism… Gives this kid time, he just turned 18… Not saying he will be like or as good as Manu in the NBA like the post suggested but could see him closer to a Budinger styled player with his size and ability

Comparisons are good but it needs to be noted that these are the players celings. There wont be 20 All stars in this draft class

  The only good thing about this repost of horrible comparisons is that I can neg them again.
  I’d be keeping them on the lowdown from now on.

Fran Fraschilla – ‘Simmons could start for 20 NBA teams right now’
Buy or sell?
Credit goes to the #1 basketball journalist Olgun Ulic. Continuously provides me with intel on off-the-radar prospects.
Thats why I’m rarely wrong with my predictions, and was able to hype up cats like Humphries, Simmons, Jack McVeigh etc before theyre even in the radar of college recruiters.
So if you want to be ahead of the game like me, follow him on twitter.

So you know this is actually not bias. I think Brandon Ingram is overrated (he’s not a top 10 imo), BUT he does kinda remind me of PG13 though.

  I’ve watched almost all of SDSU games last year and just highlights of Ingram. Malik Pope and Ingram have very similar game and body build. Just a random observation…..
