The Arizona Wildcats' 2015 recruiting class was ranked as the third-best class in the entire country, and Justin Simon, a four-star prospect from Temecula, California, was a notable part of it.
The 6-foot-5 point guard was ranked as the No. 34 recruit and eighth-best point guard in his class. Given that Arizona was losing its starting point guard in T.J. McConnell, and its only two other point guards were the undersized Parker Jackson-Cartwright and combo guard Kadeem Allen, there figured to be a chance for Simon to contribute right away.
