Slowly trending under the radar this spring, it was Simpson’s play over the weekend in Dallas that should push him further into the spotlight. Kyrese flashed a knack for making plays, especially when creating off the dribble. He uses a quick start-and-stop pace along with strong body control to consistently create space and get into the painted area. He also has underrated speed in the open court and can push the pace from end to end while navigating both the floor and the defense. Kyrese is a tough finisher who showed the ability to score with either hand at the rim while also finding success in the in-between game with a collection of floaters and touch shots. More than anything, he plays selflessly. He pushes the ball ahead in transition, plays off his teammates effectively, and impacts the game as both a passer and a timely catch-and-shoot threat. You should continue to hear from Kyrese in a big way this summer.

The 2027 point guard is a tremendous offensive player with his quickness, shiftiness and smooth handles. He creates his own shot off the dribble and can score at all three levels. He’s always keeping the defenders guessing. Is it a straight line drive, a crossover, or a pull up 3. He was showing it all in the evening contest.
