About Ty
Expert Analysis
Michael Roth | Prep Hoops Scout
It’s uncommon for eighth graders to start varsity but Simons is in the Nicholas County starting lineup, and for good reason. He impressed me with an advanced feel for his age, not forcing the issue with the ball in his hands. Simons’ strong frame for his age also allows him to handle the physicality of the varsity game with nothing but older players sharing the court with him on Thursday night. Simons had a bucket in the mid-range and a righty scoop layup in transition during the second half in this back-and-forth contest. A name we’ll be writing a lot more about over the next four years, expect to get very familiar with Simons game.

Simons is super skilled at the point guard spot and continues to get better with the more varsity experience he gets. An efficient scorer who gets to his spots on offense, Ty is shooting 50% from the field and 50% from three. He doesn’t rely on attacking the paint or float around the perimeter too much. Simons is a true three level scorer and is certainly a name to keep up with, long term.
