jackson has way better ball skills. his handle is nasty for a SG (yes, he's a SG) and he's a much better playmaker.
he doesn't have wiggins' length though.
He looks taller than Wiggins in that vid though. Yeah, Jackson's ball skills are much better than Wiggins and his athleticism is not too far off if not similar. He has the same style as Wiggins in which he looks like he's not trying and makes it look so easy. I think Jackson has more potential than Wiggins from the looks of it and he looks much more like TMac than Wiggins. Who do you think is the better defender of the two?
they both have their strengths and have very good potential on that end. wiggins to me was a bit overrated defensively in college and he's not a good defender yet in the pros. he has the benefit of his length and vertical ability, so he can play a conservative style, not give his opposition much while still recovering and contesting shots. fundamentally he's pretty sound, but he's not a high intensity defender, or player in general. jackson is a little more of a gambler. he makes more plays off the ball, looks for more stls on his man and he'll heat up the ball-handler, getting up in their shirt, which has it's positives and negatives.
