Justin Simon

Huge fan of Justin. Hardworker with a great team first attitude. He doesn’t have an offensive game that is even remotely nba ready. It would have been nice to have him back.

He'll barely make a living playing ball overseas somewhere. Bon voyage.

Don’t understand the vitriol here, as if you’re hoping he fails.

Dude represented well, won DPOY and hey, off chance he makes it next to “College” it will say St. John’s.

Hope he figures it out and latches on somewhere. Worst case he replaces Tarik Turner a few years down the road.

Lol vitriol? No need to be so sensitive. I'm merely stating my opinion about his pro potential. If you don't agree that's your prerogative but try not to misconstrue my comments as you have a propensity for doing.

I wish Justin all the luck in the world.

I think he’ll be successful because he’s a hard worker. I don’t know if he’ll ever be an NBA player, but if he continues to show up every day, it will happen for him in the league or somewhere else.

I see Justin worked out for the Celtics.  As a huge Celtics fan, I would be thrilled with this and I think the Celtics are the exact kind of team that realistically could draft Justin.   They put a premium on defense and have always carried players who were limited offensively but phenomenal defensively.  Marcus Smart, Semi Ojeleye, Robert Williams, even going back to Tony Allen are all defensive stalwarts that the Celtics probably drafted higher than their projected slot due to defense.  Obviously all of those guys were more promising prospects than Justin is, but I could see them using a second rounder on him (especially if they are about to trade most of their young players for AD and will need cheap young talent around to complement a few stars). 

Brad Stevens also literally makes everyone who plays for him better.  Crossing my fingers that Justin lands here even if just to play for the Maine red claws to start.

Playing with the Bulls in Summer League.

Yes, but I just do not see him making the jump to them after summer. Maybe G-league for a bit before Euro, but Justin, more so than Ponds would have been best served returning.

20 minutes, 7 pts (3-7) (0-3 3pt) 4 reb 0 assists 4 steals 1 block

Was the 6th man played the most minutes off the bench

If he keeps this up he’ll have a shot at the G League.

He's playing his tail off!!!
