High-upside, high-motor Vanderbilt big with real rebounding punch
In his 2018-19 Vanderbilt season, Simi Shittu averaged 10.9 points and 6.7 rebounds in 32 games, starting 31, and led the Commodores on the glass while showing strong finishing, athleticism, and a relentless motor. He’s the kind of forward who can bully smaller defenders, attack the rim, and impact possessions with energy, but his shaky shooting touch and free-throw issues have always been part of the scouting conversation. If you want upside, physicality, and a rebound-first presence, he’s intriguing; if you need a polished floor spacer, he’s less your guy.
