Why is both Jackson and Tatum selected higher than Simmons

1. Simmons
2. Tatum
3. Giles
4. Ingram

Jackson top 10

Without the ACLs I believe Giles would be a clear #1

Disagree. Even if Giles never had an ACL I would still chose Simmons above him if in the same draft. Simmons is a generational talent.

I agree that Simmons has an absurd ceiling, but the Webber comparisons to Giles seemed very accurate.

Multiple knee injuries hurt his stock dramatically - without them he looks to have a better floor and similar ceiling to Simmons

Giles and Ayton are the 2 "next big thing" prospects in high school, Simmons had hype but not like those two.

Obviously this is not an exact science :-P

Agreed. Giles would be the easy choice if it wasnt for the surgeries. He is a freak for his size and has a much bigger impact on the defensive end that Simmons did in high school. If Giles comes out as good as he did after his first surgery, he still may make a run for #1 in 2017. He is that good of a prospect

Giles is out of top5 if Sam Hinkie isn't drafting

1. Jackson
2. Simmons
3. Giles
4. Tatum
5. Ingram or Dennis Smith

Giles probably gets picked 1st if he didn't just suffer his second ACL tear.
