Washington’s dead-eye wing who once bent games with pure shooting
In the 2004-05 season, Tre Simmons was a high-volume, high-efficiency scorer for Washington, averaging 16.0 points and 4.8 rebounds while leading the Huskies with 48 threes and shooting 40% from deep—exactly the kind of wing that changes defensive game plans[8][12]. His calling card was spacing: he finished among the school’s all-time leaders in career three-pointers and 3-point percentage, and he had a proven knack for big moments, including key shots in Washington’s upset of No. 1 Stanford[3][4]. If a team needs a confident, veteran perimeter threat who can punish help defense, he’s a fit; if you need a true downhill creator, that’s not his lane.
