I think he'll end up playing the one in the NBA. I'd put him with a scoring small guard who can play off-ball (Irving, B. Knight, Dragic, L. Williams) and a 3&D wing (J. Butler, D. Green, W. Matthews). He could run the offense & guard the 2nd best wing.

He'll def be a point-forward.

Lol why all the laughs? He can definitely run the offense & guard a wing. I hope the team that drafts him doesn't want him to average 25-30 PPG. Just doesn't look like his game.

And the LeBron part 2 is close but I don't think he'll score as much.

Jesus Christ. I bet half the people replying didn't even play ball.

Who's the PG on Cleveland?

What does that have to do with knowing and understanding the sport?

What the hell does Cleveland have to do woth this? And just because, Kyrie Irvin is the PG for cleveland, you know one of the best in the game, something like top 4 or 5 in the league

I'd hope that someone who knew & understood the sport would have something better to say than Most of the time when people do that they're just being assholes. I'm not saying Ben Simmons can guard Stephen Curry, I'm saying he can be the main facilitator in an NBA offense & it may be the position he's best suited for. Jmo

I predict a power guard, or small center.

Most people who've never played just see a 6'8 guy & laugh at the thought. I understand, it's not their fault. They don't know.

I could definitely see a point forward position for him. His dribbling and passing skills are already better than some NBA PGs

He's Lebron sans the narcissism.

Just some advice: don't try to talk about a sport that you played on tigerdroppings. The guys that post on this site every day (that probably never played sports) genuinely don't understand why someone that played their entire life has a better grasp of certain aspects of a sport than them. I played baseball for a long time and I've had people on the rant without even a basic understanding of the game try to explain to me that infielders don't practice their throwing. It's a joke and it'll just piss you off, if you were a basketball player just save yourself the aggravation and read about football and baseball

He will be listed as a Small Forward, but will bring the ball up the court a lot. Point forward.
