Ducks add 6-4 Guard in the portal
Elon transfer guard TK Simpkins committed to the Ducks Wednesday. Simpkins scored 16.4 points a game on 42 percent shooting, 36.7 percent from three, 76 percent from the line. He averaged three assists and three rebounds a game.
He'll give the Ducks size in the backcourt to go along with Jackson Shelstad, who announced a return to the team on Sunday. Next Dana Altman needs a wing who can attack the boards and the basket.
From Brooklyn, New York, Simpkins will be a junior in 2025-26, though he started his career at Northwest Florida State, a JUCO school.
