DeMonte Simpson brings size, efficiency, and low-usage reliability to FAU’s frontcourt
In the 2025-26 season, DeMonte Simpson has been a steady, efficient depth piece for Florida Atlantic, averaging 3.8 points and 3.7 rebounds while shooting 48.8% from the field.[1] At 6-foot-9, he gives the Owls a physical interior presence and a proven ability to contribute without needing the ball, which can be a useful fit for teams that value rebounding, screen-setting, and effort minutes over high-usage scoring.[1][2] FAU’s roster listing also shows he appeared in 23 games with 11 starts, so he has earned meaningful rotation trust rather than being a pure end-of-bench flyer.[3]
