About Jaiun
Expert Analysis
Cam Rickers | Prep Hoops Scout
Simon committed to Dayton back in October and then put together a great high school season worthy of high-major looks. He can score effectively at all three levels and can play either the 3 or the 4. Tough around the basket and finishes strong through contact.

Simon is a smooth forward that can score inside and out. His turnaround jumper out of the post is almost impossible to defend with the amount of separation he creates. The Dayton-signee finished with 10 points, scoring with both hands around the basket.

Simon is off to University of Dayton next season to play for Head Coach Anthony Grant. Jaiun was relentless all day long with his play. He was able to post up smaller defenders and at times showed a nice drop-step move. Simon is a MANCHILD to defend in the paint at times. Jaiun constantly had the MOTOR going at all times for the Falcons here today.

had the performance of the day in my opinion, scoring 31 points and carrying Pebblebrook to a big early season win over Grayson. Simon was really good out of the high post where he hit several contested jumpers from 15-20 feet. He also knocked down 4 threes and shot it well from all over. Simon is a very versatile forward that can attack defenses from inside-out and that’s exactly what he did on Saturday. In time, I think he’ll prove to be a huge steal for Dayton.

No. 3 – Jaiun first caught my eye as a rising sophomore. He looked special right away with his frame and inside-out game. Simon is a skilled scorer in the paint, able to hit turnaround jumpers out of the post or finish in traffic, but his mid-range game is deadly and will keep him on the perimeter was a wing. Simon is a battler defensively and on the glass. A plethora of Mid-Major schools have offered.
