Could have very well been a unanimous #1 pick by now if he didn't reclassify.


Do you think GG Jackson is a future All-star?

He certainly has the talent.
Question is whether he puts it all together over a season or more.

All I know about GG is this, he looked damn good in the Kings game last night. Damn good.

Quickly shaping up to be the steal of the draft.
He'll be the biggest steal since Jalen Brunson if he can put it together over multiple years.

Not at all. But a lot of us thought he should’ve went higher on draft night. Yes he had some maturity issues but you don’t find movement skills and offensive bags on guys his size often.
Plus, he was supposed to be a senior in high school but instead was trying to carry an SEC team.
I just watched him be able to score at 3 levels and was pretty certain he would translate once his role was more defined and he was in a structured program

Yeah I'm doing my best not to @ the posters who were making statements discounting GG without watching him play more than National TV games and looking at box scores.

Turns 20 years old in 8 months. Shot 46% on corner 3s. Obviously needs to add more to overall game but nice upside for a #45 selection. Just shows GMs overthink things. Any team short on talent that didn't pursue this low risk/high reward at all should be fired.
Organization can be defined as an organized body of people with a particular purpose. Not random.

There’s zero doubt in my mind he goes 1:1 in this draft he hadn’t reclassified

Today was his career high 44. First half he helped the team go toe to toe with the defending champs who were fighting for seeding.
