Blake Simmons brings efficient veteran wing play and steady two-way value to Evansville
In the 2017-18 season, Blake Simmons was a reliable all-around piece for Evansville, starting all 31 games and averaging 10.4 points and 4.7 rebounds per game while earning MVC Scholar-Athlete honors[3]. He profiles as a steady G/F who gives you toughness, smart shot selection, and enough versatility to impact the game without needing the ball constantly, which is exactly the kind of glue-guy fit coaches love[3][5]. The big selling point? He already proved he can handle heavy minutes, play through adversity after missing a season with injury, and stay composed in big spots[3][5].
