Jaaron Simmons

On June 25, 2018, Simmons signed his first professional contract with Union Neuchâtel in Switzerland.

Simmons began his college career with Houston, choosing to play for the Cougars over several mid-major programs. He sat out for the 2014–15 season to transfer to Ohio, for whom he had an immediate impact, earning second-team and first-team All-Mid-American Conference (MAC) honors in 2017 and 2018, respectively. As a junior, he averaged 15.5 points and 7.9 assists per game, third in the nation. He transferred to Michigan for his senior campaign because he wanted to reach the NCAA Tournament. However, he received little playing time throughout the season with the national runner-up 2017–18 team playing as a backup point guard to Zavier Simpson.
