Simpson is still coming back from injury so he didn’t compete in the second 5 on 5 game of the day. Regardless, his coach named him as one of the three best players he saw at camp on Saturday. Nick is a good sized guard with above average athleticism and the ability to score from all three levels.

One of the more overlooked players in the 4th region, Nick is capable of scoring the ball or creating open shots for teammates. Likely a top 5 player in his region, Simpson would be a steal for a D3 school at the next level.

Greenwood is in total rebuild mode after graduating a bunch of Seniors and almost all of their scoring from last year and Simpson will be a nice piece for them moving forward. Nick has a high IQ and is a good shooter. He’s going to need to keep getting stronger to reach his ceiling but you can tell he’s the son of a coach in how he approaches the game and sees the floor.

Simpson saw the court in about half of the Gators games as a freshman but after losing a huge class to graduation, don’t be surprised if Nick is the starting point guard for a suddenly very young group at Greenwood. Simpson showed at our Top 250 expo that he can knock down perimeter shots with regularity and is a crafty finisher at the rim. Greenwood may take their lumps early but will be dangerous by tournament time.
