Mike Bibby was the guy who ended up being the lottery pick in the 1998 NBA Draft, but guard Miles Simon was considered to be the heart and soul of the University of Arizona Wildcats team that beat three #1 ranked teams in the NCAA Tournament, en route to winning the National Championship in 1997. Simon wasn’t taken until midway through the second round of the 1998 NBA Draft, and spent most of his career playing basketball internationally. After returning stateside in 2005, Simon began coaching under his former college coach Lute Olsen at his Alma Mater. After a brief sabbatical from coaching, Simon currently works for the Los Angeles Lakers as an assistant coach.
