The Portland Trail Blazers came away with somewhat of a steal when they selected Anfernee Simons with the 24th pick in the 2018 NBA Draft. Although that was a loaded class, Simons came with spectacular value once he fell into the Blazers lap.
The young guard made waves as he was one of the first players to forego a one-and-done season in college, opting instead to declare for the draft straight out of high school, eligible due to his age.
That made him a high-risk, high-reward prospect, having earned a 5-star status with 247Sports, but entering the league with almost zero film against Division I talent.
