Casey Simmons is Yale’s do-everything defensive wing who quietly became a title-level glue guy
In the 2025-26 season, Casey Simmons earned Ivy League Defensive Player of the Year honors while averaging 10.5 points, 3.9 rebounds, and shooting 56.0% from the field for Yale; he also started all 31 games and ranked second on the team in blocks. The 6'7 senior is valuable because he defends multiple spots, finishes efficiently, and brings a steady, high-motor presence that shows up in winning moments—not just box scores. If you want a long, versatile guard/wing who fits a disciplined system and raises the floor on both ends, he’s an easy yes.
