Ben Simmons grabbed a rebound during a five-on-five drill Monday morning and pushed the ball in transition down the right sideline. Antonio Blakeney, his former AAU teammate and future college teammate at LSU, had leaked out ahead of the play and was sprinting to the basket between a pair of defenders. Simmons took the ball in his right hand and saw an angle almost no one else in the gym would have noticed. He spun a bounce pass directly into Blakeney's hands for a layup. It would have been a great feed for a veteran point guard to make, let alone a 6'9, 225-pound, 18-year-old still a couple months away from graduating high school. http://www.sbnation.com/college-bas...americans-ben-simmons-jaylen-brown-recruiting
