Miles is an high-level athlete whose activity translates into defensive impact and work on the glass. At 6’5”, he brings positional size to the backcourt and stays involved in areas that can determine a possession without requiring a shot attempt. His willingness to defend, pursue rebounds, and make winning plays gives the Buffalos a guard who contributes beyond the scoring column. The appeal is how his athletic tools connect with his activity. Miles can support the team’s scorers by helping secure stops and finish possessions, providing the kind of contribution that keeps a talented lineup balanced. In a system built around physical defense and pace, maintaining that activity will make him an important part of how The Villages establishes its competitive edge.

Simpson was an active transition rim-runner and lane filler whose ability to side-step defenders with euro-steps or quickly elevate into an above-the-rim finish made him one of the more effective open court scorers we watched. The wiry 6-foot-5 wing didn’t shy away from the intangible things as his effort on the offensive glass led to easy second chance points and showed his ability to impact the game without dominating the ball. Simpson seemed to be in constant motion on both ends of the floor which led to him flying around and making plays on both ends.

Simpson is a talented wing with size and above average athleticism. He has been impressive so far this summer for The Villages and should garner plenty of attention from college coaches playing with next to some of the state’s top prospects for Head Coach Colt McDowell. The rising sophomore is a high level athlete, can make open perimeter shots and can guard multiple positions on the other end of the floor.

Simpson’s talent is easy to spot. He possesses outstanding size, length, athleticism, and skill for his age. Whether it’s running the floor, finishing in transition, or creating from the midrange, he flashes traits that project at a very high level. Plays amongst a roster of other D1 prospects but the long-term ceiling remains extremely high.

Miles is a high flyer in the 2029 class who was putting on a show with Brad Beal Elite 16u. In one game he threw down a windmill dunk out in the open floor, and all weekend long he was a highlight play waiting to happen. Quick first step helps him beat opposing wings off the dribble, and he covers so much ground off a single dribble with his long stride. Miles has the ability to euro-step to avoid shot blockers, or can just glide straight to the rim where he has no problem finishing over the top of size. Just has an effortless look to his game.

Surrounded by a roster full of talent and college prospects, Simpson isn’t posting eye-popping numbers for The Villages, but his talent and long-term potential are obvious. The sophomore possesses high-level size, length, and athleticism to go along with an advanced offensive skill set. A pair of plays on Saturday—a strong catch-and-finish in transition and a polished midrange move for a score—were more than enough to confirm that Simpson projects as one of the nation’s top prospects in the 2028 class.

The 6’6 forward played a big role as a freshman in the Statesmen’s run to the Class 5 state championship. He can excel at multiple positions with his size and versatile skill set. He averaged 10 points and five rebounds as a freshmen. He played with the Brad Beal Elite 15U squad during the summer.

Simpson attacked the lane with flair and force above the rim time after time the entire weekend. He ran the floor well in transition, filling his lane securing passes and showing his agility and athleticism getting inside the lane to finish in bunches. His athleticism allows him to play with effortlessly, showcasing exceptional skill.

The versatile 6’5″ forward lived up to his preseason promise by helping the Statesmen to a state championship. He was a matchup problem with his size and skill set as he averaged 10 points and six rebounds a game.

Simpson is a freshman that absolutely has superstar potential!  Long and lanky small forward that handles it with ease on the perimeter and in transition.  Played above the rim on a lob off an out of bounds, got on the offensive glass, and was a force on the glass on both ends snatching rebounds.  Such a smooth overall player that shows potential as a shot maker from deep.  He had 17 points.
