He’s not an all around athlete but he is very quick, and strong.
He seems to have worked on his jumper as well. Looking forward to seeing him in summer league.
He should be able to crack the rotation in year two as a 17 overall pick. If he can’t I think the criticism will be valid. |
I don't see how he's not part of a Trae Young package or for whoever they try to get with their picks. They're already short on future draft picks to trade. |
That may be true.
Rui
Reaves
Vincent
3 FRP
Pick swaps
JHS
For Trae young….
That’s lowkey a haul for Trae young! |
And another year barely making the play-in. lol |

With the team’s championship window of opportunity shrinking, the decision to draft someone so raw was asinine. It makes me think Rob had a lot to do with drafting a fellow big 10 player. Jaquez was in their backyard, fully matured, and performed well against many top performers who are now in the NBA. Podziemski had some maturity at age 20, speed, quickness, and creative pg skills the team could use. Those are 1st rd talents who were ignored and paid immediate dividends.
In the 2nd rd, they doubled down on Isaac Bonga type, raw youth, instead of selecting a plug & play big body like Trace Jackson Davis (also big 10?).
Now Lebron wants them to draft(?) his son, far more raw than JHS. When will it stop? |

Even if it's true, it shouldn't have leaked. Undermines the sanctity of the locker room.

We still don't know what JHS will be. Just hope his recovery is going well and that we get to see him play in Summer League.

He’s got decent strength, saw him ‘bulldoze’ to the rim in summer league, I mean uncontrolled but he got there. I been saying, mold him into Artest, board-defend-3 , stop pushing him into a ball needing PG

Artest was a pitbull. We need JHS to play like a Labrador first.

I don’t know if this kid is ready for the nba or when he would be. FO
Bad mistake by the drafting team…

He's expected to make a full recovery in the off-season. He isn't on social media much so we can only assume he's working hard.

It's wild to me how some people are so confident that JHS is a bust, after seeing him in limited minutes, IN HIS ROOKIE SEASON. It's way too early to proclaim whether he'll be a bust, a solid rotation player, or a star. Hope he fully recovers from his injury, and puts in the hard work to improve his game for next season. If not included in some trade, I'm looking forward to how he looks.

especially with apparently a suspect coaching staff. That was the crime of our youth BI etc. They were stuck with Luke and an uninterested Byron.

The guy is slow, unathletic, can't shoot, can't defend, can't playmake. Didn't even look good in the summer league. Tell me exactly what he's shown for anybody to be optimistic? He was a questionable selection the time the pick was made and didn't do a single thing to prove otherwise. Still have no idea what they were thinking with this selection when guys like Whitmore and JJJ were sitting right there. |

His back was probably injured throughout the whole season. |

Him being injury prone as well as lacking the skills mentioned doesn't exactly help Jalen's case lol.

You put stock in summer league but ignore him dominating in the g league... okay then.

Dont get me wrong i was super disappointed with this draft pick when it happened on draft day but i still do think there is chance for fino to turn it around. he flashed a bunch of potential in IU and the gleague. cautiously optimistic he'll contribute next season if he isnt dealt (which im assuming he will be)

You put stock in summer league but ignore him dominating in the g league... okay then. |
Who cares if he dominates the G League. So did Mac McClung and how is his NBA career? The last 3 MVPs of the G League are Mac McLung, Carlik Jones, and Trevelin Queen. Do any of them even play in the NBA? Why do you keep bringing up his success in the G League as if it's any indicator of how his success will be in the NBA. Using your logic, JHS couldn't even beat out McClung for the G League MVP. The same McClung who isn't good enough to play a single minute in the NBA last year. That's not really a ringing endorsement for JHS. |
