Write Up
Justin Jackson considered entering the 2016 NBA draft and went to the combine, but decided to return to college in order to boost his stock. So far he's played his way into late first round to early second round contention. He's improved his overall offensive game, but has made the largest strides in his 3pt shooting. He has expanded his range and is a legitimate threat from deep, and it's especially tough to defend his quick release. He has improved his playmaking and creating abilities and looks more more comfortable putting the ball on the floor. Jackson has a good BBIQ and has high role player potential for the NBA. However it may be tough for Jackson to handle the physicality of the NBA due to his lack of strength and athleticism. Overall Jackson has some nice tools and will likely be a valuable depth piece for teams later in the first round.
