is someone who can show off her range making her shot count from deep. She’s aggressive getting to the basket making it count though contact and using her strength to get into the right position to score some points. Her aggressiveness translates well to the defensive side of the ball grabbing steals and picking the pocket of her opponents.

Dynamic Combo Guard who can score at all three levels. She has the ability to create her own shot off the bounce and is a playmaker for her teammates. She displays a nice silky smooth pull up jumper and the ability to drain three-point shots. A true leader for her team.

was a tough defender getting in the way of her opponents and exploding into the passing lanes. She takes her steals all the way for solo fast breaks even battling contact when needed. She is constantly talking on the court, too, directing her teammates on what to do, especially as she brings the ball up the court.

was a nuisance on defense picking the ball away from her opponents and hustling up the court to get a fast break going. She had some nice range with her shot hitting it from around the perimeter. She attacked the basket finding her own opening and going to work.

Simms can shoot the basketball. Her outside shot is picture-perfect, and it is very accurate. She can knock down threes in transition, against a man defense, and against a zone. Simms is the ultimate “zone-buster” against a 2-3 or a 3-2 zone. When her jump shot is taken away with a tight closeout, Simms drives hard to the rim. In any game, she can get to the foul line nearly 5 times per game. Sims is a special talent who scored over 13 points per game in her freshman season and grabbed over 4 rebounds.

can shoot the basketball from feet behind the three-point line. She can also slash to the rim and drop a pretty runner off the backboard, get fouled, and drain the free throw. Simms can score from any spot on the floor. In any contest, she will drop multiple threes or create space and knockdown her midrange jumper.

has a pretty outside shot. She has a consistent release on her jump shot and good feet as well. In transition, she gets ready quickly to drain the three when her teammates find her. Simms also has a strong basketball build and the ability to defend multiple positions for her squad. She is a competitor who is willing to do what it takes for her CP3 team to win the game.
