We all know about Ben Simmons and his athletic ability. I'm not familiar with Blakeney though. Anyone he compares to? His outside game?

He gets buckets. And buckets. And more buckets. And then even more buckets. Then when he's done getting buckets, ya know what he does? HE GETS MORE BUCKETS.

Possibly the best outside shooter in this class. Makes his own shots. Him and Simmons together is a GREAT inside/outside combination of talent.

Simmons is a good shooter, but not a great outside shooter from what I remember. It's the only part of his game that isn't very elite.

He reminds me of a smaller version of Allan Houston....very similar shot. Blakeney is more dynamic around the rim though.

Young Ray Allen at UConn. Creates off the dribble, and can knock it down from anywhere. And AB can dunk better.

That kid wants it. Works his arse off and seems like a good person.

Thanks for picking the Tigers, Antonio.

Best guard we've got out of high school since Randy Livingston and Chris Jackson. He's the outside scorer we've been missing since Marcus Thornton left.

From my understanding is he's more athletic than Ray Allen though right? Not as much of a spot up shooter
