Kanter?
He's a 6'8 tweener. No post game and no outside shot. Very good, though.. lol
I think there's a perception that some of the European players are "soft" and are less fiercely competitive than U.S. players. European players are also criticized for being less athletic than U.S. players in some cases. Some of this is simply referring to cultural and ethnic differences. That said, it looks to me that players from France are as competitive and fiery as anyone, and there are stand-out athletes throughout Europe and North America. Heck, even Canada these days.
They're just fighting to get out of their circumstances. I would hate living my life in a 3rd world country like Canadana.
I haven't seen Brown yet. Simmons had a tripple double yesterday against Ivan Rabb's team, who is another potential top 3 prospect of the 2016 class. BTW Rabb looked awesome as well(maybe even better than Simmons)... In case you want to see the game:

Simmons is a beast and he has unique versatile skill set. According to some reports he's even grown a couple of inches during the summer and is now 6'10'' - 6'11''. Imagine 6'11'' with PG vision and passing, with great hops, with great handle, great body, great quickness and fluidity of his movement... good defense...
They list him as a PF in HS, but to me he looks much more like SF with his skillset. He is VERY skilled, point forward type, can finish and pass with both hands, has great handle for his size. Seems like he's worked on some post moves in the off-season. According to reports he's been working on his shot and is improving it as well. If I was the team to draft him, I'd be developing him as a SF. And he is actually very unselfish, sometimes to a fault(something I don't think you can say about Rivers). According to recent reports, he's 6'10'' now, so he'd be an oversized SF.
