His grandfather:
Via Wiki
Cornelius Leo "Connie" Simmons (March 15, 1925 – April 15, 1989) was an American professional basketball player. He was born in Newark, New Jersey.
A 6'8" forward/center from Flushing High School in New York City, Simmons played ten seasons (1946–56) in the National Basketball Association as a member of the Boston Celtics, Baltimore Bullets, New York Knicks, Syracuse Nationals and Rochester Royals. He averaged 9.8 points per game and 6.2 rebounds per game in his career and was a member of two league championship teams: the 1948 Bullets and the 1955 Nationals. He was the second player to enter the NBA without having played in college, after Tony Kappen.[1]
Connie was the brother of professional basketball and baseball player Johnny Simmons.[2]

I love the Knicks connection. Has nice skills, good size.... if his name is called, at least we'll know what's up.

Kid is listed 6'10" 229lbs... 21 years old. Ok he's on my radar. Sneaky ivy league players.

We may be able to get him ala Ron baker udfa
fitzfarm@ 6/1/2017 11:42 AM

A tall southpaw that can shoot with a quick release. I like it.

Phil is thinking Toni Kukoc

Second coming of Bill Bradley.

These are the kinds of guys you have scope out when rebuilding. UDFA's have been a nice resource. This kid has some nice skills. Will be interesting if they bring him in after the draft.

Aleksander Vezenkov is a better prospect more seasoned I believe he played for Barcelona this past year and did pretty well.
