Ashton Simmons Ashton Simmons 6'3" | PG West Brook | 2024 State #228 Nation TX showcased his effectiveness on the defensive as one of the most impactful on-ball and perimeter defenders in the gym. His ability to shut down his opponent and disrupt their offensive flow was remarkable. What set Simmons apart was his knack for translating his defensive prowess into offensive opportunities, often scoring in transition after forcing turnovers with on-ball steals or by jumping the passing lanes. Simmons showed a relentless determination to stop his man from scoring as he never gave up on a play and made opposing guards work tirelessly for every inch and every shot they got.

The floor general for JL3 was lethal in the mid-range during their Saturday morning victory. He did a lot of his damage in pick and roll situations, often partnering with Jacobesen. But even in iso situations, he has a tight handle and wiggle that allows him to put defenders on their heels, which created enough space for him to thrive in the mid-range. While some of the size did impact his finishing at the rim,  he did break out a nice floater and made gritty plays around the rim. This extended to the defensive end, as when he was mismatched on a post up late, he fought through the opponent and stole the entry pass.

About the only knock on him today, was the two free throws he missed. He went 6-8 from the line, but both misses came in the final minute with a 1 point lead. Still, a 25 point and 13 rebound complete performance and victory is a great start to the weekend for Simmons
