Jaime Jaquez Jr. 

Post#1 » by EvanZ » Sun May 10, 2020 1:23 am

Wanted to create this thread while it's on my mind. Very good chance he would have ended up with a first round grade from me this year. Good size (+3 wingspan supposedly), athleticism, motor, etc. Can do a lot of things. I think if he can demonstrate some improvement in the 3pt shooting (say >= 36%) on good volume, you're looking at a potential lottery guy next year in 2021, even in a loaded class.

When you say he can do a lot of things, that's very vague. What do you mean?

What has he done to suggest that he has potential to go from the #83 ranked high school prospect to a lottery pick as a sophomore?

lotto is very strong to me, but I def like him, he is Matt Barnes-y

HS rankings are generally bull, RSCI has value in terms of floor, not really much outside of that

I get that but not many guys go from being ranked that low to being a lotto pick in their sophomore year...

Dribble, drive, I think the shooting will be there, defends, has good length and size for a guardy/wing, smart player. He checks a lot of boxes. If he was in Europe a lot of you would have him top 10.

Yeah looks like a hot take right now, but like I said it’s predicated on the shooting taking a leap. If it doesn’t take that leap then all bets are off.

Haliburton, Obi, and Vassell all unranked high school players.

FWIW Jacquez is #95 on the ESPN 2019 rankings:
