We need more Jamir content. I have a feeling this kid is going to be quite good.
Here he is at the Combine:

I have a sneaking suspicion this kid's going to be very good!

Yeah I've been following him on social media and he is in the gym all day every day. Focused. An older rookie so we might not expect the same development out of him, but I bet he quickly shows in G League that he needs an opportunity at the back end of the bench.

Kid looks like a solid contributor -- high bball iq, good athleticism, & solid numbers. Looks like he can be a very reliable guy off the bench -- not necessarily all the way at the back of the bench either. We'll see....

If Jamir dominates on D the way he did in that combine video and during summer league it's going to be hard to deny him PT.

I like that Dawkins & Winger didn't have a problem drafting Jamir despite the fact that he was turning 24 shortly after the draft.

i.e. *be hard to* deny him PT.... Agrreed.

PIF, thanks for the correction. I sense this won’t be the last time we’re going to bumping up the Jamir Watkins thread.

I like Watkins as a hint to the future of the type of players they will hunt for when they are no longer scouting for upside and developmental talent.
