I'm wondering how good this guy is too. We had a lot of guys saying this was going to be a Sweet 16 team in the offseason, that Simmons and Victor would way more than offset the loss of Mickey and Martin. If that's the case, then Victor is going to need to be capable of a double-double. We NEED a guy who will approach 10 rebounds a game playing down low, because outside of Simmons, we don't have anybody who hits the boards.
And with Simmons running the offense, we need SOMEONE to establish a post presence. 10 points via post-ups and garbage points (Mickey offense) isn't a whole lot if he's a starter.

If he's not that, this team is way overrated. Because, simply, as good as Simmons is, he's really not a huge factor as a front court player- he needs to be on the wing. Otherwise, he's an immensely skilled passer waiting for someone to dump him the ball down low.
