UNC great Dante Calabria has Ben Simmons nearly impossible to stop

Posted Dec 16, 2014
If you thought it was tough to stop Montverde forward Ben Simmons before, you can thank Dante Calabria for upgrading that task to near impossible. “Coach Dante has my shot working a lot better,” said Simmons, the No. 1 overall player in the ESPN 100. Calabria won a national title as a sharpshooter at North Carolina and scored 1,098 points in his four-year career as a Tar Heel (1992-96). (USA Today)
