Kasey Hill (born December 3, 1993) is an American college basketball player for the Florida Gators.[1]
Early life
Hill was raised by Jeff and Jennie Simmons after his father was sent to prison. He befriended their son, Kyle, in grade school. Hill was named a McDonald's All-American as a senior in high school. He played high school basketball at Montverde Academy alongside future Florida teammate Michael Frazier II.[1]
College career
On December 2, 2013, Hill missed a game with a sprained ankle. In Hill's freshman season, Florida reached the Final Four. He was a backup point guard to Scottie Wilbekin.[1] During his time at UF, Hill has made 57.7% of his free throws.[2] His collegiate career has thus far been somewhat disappointing after such a prolific high school career.
