Love his attitude. Knew he was a hard worker coming into the draft, but love to see him take what others say to heart and work on his game even further.

The knock on him was that he cannot shoot the three. But he just keeps shooting them well. His shot is fairly ugly. I understand that. He doesn't have to shoot a lot, or get his three off in traffic. He just has to be able to shoot a good percentage when open.

Of course, the sample size is small, but free throw shooting and 3 point shoot were the concerns. Other than that its just being who he is.

How many assists? Seems odd they didn't list that.

Averaging 1 per game. Compared to 5.67 TO per game. Probably why they don't list it.

Nothing crazy but still something to glance over:

It would be nice to see some of those players break out (especially Jackson of course) as I have 4 of them on my dynasty team.

His first 2 games in the NBA was a bit disappointing for me. He supposed to be a player that can do everthing except shooting meanwhile he is shooting 3s nicely but in 55 minutes of play so far he only got 2 rebs, 1 steal and 0 assists.

Hard to get rebounds when no one on the team is playing defense, and hard to get assists when everyone wants to iso and next to two ball dominant guards.

Not that i disagree with you, i would like to see him get more and have some transition plays which he seems to be really good at.

JJ has been a little disappointing but honestly, I'm not worried about him at all. He obviously belongs in the league and is already playing at an NBA level. His rebounding, assists and block numbers would be higher if it wasn't for the fact that nobody boxes out, there's little to no ball movement and he's pretty much everywhere defensively so I'm not worried about his blocks.

I'm worried that the screwed up rotations, and the awful coaching will significantly impact his development. Jackson must be wondering how coaching at the NBA level is far worse than in college.

It would be a crime to waste his talent and effort on yoga.

Can Josh Jackson turn this season around and be a productive player?
