He doesn’t hit threes at all
Nor can he hit free throws.
Rarely turns ball over?
Simpson does both better in all three categories and also plays tremendous D but you wouldn’t know it from this board.
The comparison being made was Davis vs. Miller, not Davis vs. Simpson. Linzalonic didn't even mention Simpson.
However, here's the conference game stats for Davis, Simpson, and Miller's last year here.
Davis: 430 minutes played, 41 - 105 FG (.390), 5-22 3Pt% (.227), 24-40 FT% (.600), 111 pts (5.8 avg), 61 reb, 25 assists, 27 TO, 19 stl, 6 blk
Simpson: 516 minutes played, 55-176 FG (.313), 14-44 3Pt% (.318), 36-42 FT% (.857), 160 pts (8.4 avg), 68 reb, 52 assists, 28 turnovers, 27 steals, 0 blk
Miller last year in conference play: 31 minutes played, zero points scored, two rebounds, two steals, two assists, one turnover.
Last year, Simpson played 328 B1G minutes and shot .379 (4-24 from deep), was 19-23 from the FT line, 32 reb, 18 assists, 10 turnovers, 8 steals, and 0 blk
My conclusion - Simpson is a better FT shooter but that has only translated to 12 more points in 19 B1G games this year. He's a better 3Pt shooter this season than Davis, he is better at avoiding turnovers on a per-minute basis and far better at getting assists... but in his additional 71 FG attempts over what Davis has taken, he is 14-71. Some of that is because he's been the one forced to create a shot attempt late in the clock - but still, woof.
They are both solid defenders.
