LSU Basketball: Jay Bilas On Ben Simmons: "He's Ridiculous," Compares Him Favorably To Okafor, Towns, Wiggins
ESPN college basketball analyst Jay Bilas is the best in the business, and heading into the 2015-16 season, he is pretty enamored with the nation's top incoming freshman. Bilas watched LSU signee Ben Simmons at the Nike Basketball Academy, and has some serious praise for the talented wing.

Perhaps even more impressive? He won't even compare some of the top players from last year's best teams to Simmons.
