Just like Denzel Valentine.I'd like to see the Sixers or Spurs trade to get Jackson. When he gets with real coaches, he could become a star.

justin jackson would probably be my least favorite option for hornets. already 22, can't create his own shot but not an elite shooter either (.339 3pt% for college career), despite age still slight frame, because of this versatile college defender but doubtful he'll be able to guard anything but NBA 3s.
yeah i'm sure this is right but i'd bet people are more often right when they're confident someone will suck than when they're confident they'll be good because right before the draft a lot of the dudes reach the crescendo of their hype and prospects as a group are generally overrated. i guess every year all the top 10 picks are getting comped to perennial NBA all stars and even late FRPs are getting comped to above average starters.
Jackson's advanced age, minimal athleticism, and multi-year collegiate career all but confirms he's bound for Chicago if Charlotte doesn't scoop him up first. If there's one thing GarPax loves to draft, it's dudes who are old and slow.
Advanced age of 22...that is batshit crazy! The 19/20 yos have to learn what he already knows and that takes time.
True, but there was also a lot of hating on picks that turned out to be pretty good, in retrospect. Kristaps is one example. WCS, as well.
Not a draft topic, but the Hornets just Plumleed the Hawks.
