I see it mentioned a fair bit that Ben and particularly Skal are old for there class. Josh Jackson, who is a good talent, will be a month older then Labissiere at the same stage when Skal started college.
Even Ingram is 6 months younger then him and Simmons is only 6.75 months older

Probably this, though until we see them in college it's just a guessing game. Last year people would have said Skal would have gone top 5 if there were no age limit.

Why is both Jackson and Tatum selected higher than Simmons

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

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

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.
