KJ Simpson’s two-way burst makes him a draft-board riser
In his Colorado breakout, KJ Simpson has shown why evaluators keep circling him: he can score at all three levels, create for others, and bring real defensive disruption from the guard spot. As a junior in 2023-24, he led the Buffaloes at 19.7 points per game and hit 43% from three, with a clutch game-winner over Florida in the 2024 NCAA Tournament underscoring his poise. Scouts also like his quick hands and playmaking feel—he’s not just a bucket-getter, he can steer an offense.
