Simmonds will be playing for LSU this season, having a look around it looks like he is the no.1 ranked high school player in the states at the moment.
By all reports back here in Australia Exum is a much better player.
I'm not sure what reports they are?!?!
I've seen both in the flesh, and am close with someone in Basketball Australia, I can guarantee you the view is the complete opposite.
Dante has huge potential, and he rightfully went where he went in this draft. He could be a star combo guard in the NBA
But Ben Simmons is a completely different prospect all together. Word coming out of Florida from scouts, is that Simmons in their opinion, is the best high school basketballer ever to play in Florida, they are saying he's as good as Carmelo Anthony at the same age.
He's #1 for the 2016 class at this stage, and despite scouts trying to pick the absolute crap out of him, they can't find a weakness in his game. He's a dual forward with elite athleticism and guard tendencies.
The guys at basketball Australia fully expect Ben Simmons to become Australia's greatest ever basketballer, and by a fair distance, he's that good.....................
Will be Wiggins style hype when he's eligable.
