Grizzly bears become bears, level skips generate strange soldiers, and shortcomings become strengths!
The Memphis Grizzlies have been suffering from injuries this season, but they haven't lost confidence because of this season, and they are still working hard for the second half of the playoffs. The Grizzlies are confident about this, not only because they are still full of energy, but more importantly, the arrival of young player Jackson has taken the Grizzlies by surprise. And as Jackson continues to improve, the Grizzlies are also preparing to advance to the next round.
Although Jackson was just an average rookie, he was already the best basketball player in the United States in middle school. During his senior year, Jackson averaged 22 points per game1,10.9 rebounds and was voted "Weekly Basketball Player" and "America's Greatest High School Basketball Player." Jackson is an excellent shooter whose style and size allow him to do anything on the field. In the end, he skipped to the University of Southern California in his first year.
Top NBA rookies like Edwards and Kuminga who skipped a year in college before Jackson did. But when Jackson was sent to the University of Southern California, the consequences of his absence became apparent. Upon entering the academy, Jackson's physical advantage gradually disappeared, which also made his attack ability weaker and weaker, although he could still get 154,5.9 rebounds, but his offense didn't get very well, which made Jackson very bad in his rookie season until he was drafted by the Grizzlies at No. 45 in the second round.
When Jackson joined the Grizzlies, he didn't immediately join the normal cycle and was sent to the development league. Jackson is eager to excel in the NBA again, and he's been giving it his all when he was in the Development League, while also doing some no-distance shooting drills. When the Grizzlies suffered serious injuries, Jackson was also called to the national team.
Jackson's return has given him a lot of confidence, and at the same time, with the Grizzlies' injury, Jackson has more opportunities to attack. When the ball was up, Jackson played better. Jackson scored more than 20 points against the Knicks and Golden State and is the youngest man to score more than 20 points since James.
Jackson is now better at attacking more on the court than he did when he was in high school and college. Jackson has great physical strength and great attacking ability, and forms a dangerous defense in the air. What's more, Jackson, who used to be a poor three-point shooter, is now breaking through 50% from beyond the three-point line, and is still increasing his scoring ability, making him the main force of the team.
Jackson had a rough start, but he had a good chance to show himself, and Jackson had the most to do with that. Jackson, the best student in the country last year, was desperate to show what he was capable of. In the Grizzlies' view, although they have experienced a lot of difficulties this season, they have gained something from the suffering, and Jackson's recovery is also the most important income of the Grizzlies this season.
