(bleep) Josh Jackson really went 0-13 and got 0 assists against Houston. Was he going like 2016 Kobe at his worst or some (bleep) (love you Kob')

I did not watch...but he has actually had a very good January outside of that one game for the most part....13/4/2 in 23 MPG during the month. If you go back to last year at Kansas...he struggled some in November and December...then came on strong starting in January. We will see how he finishes the year. I am still in pure buy mode on Josh Jackson stock.

You already bought. You’re in stuck with status.

Donovon Mitchell was the guy that Philadelphia was hoping Fultz would be. There's still time for Fultz of course but damn Mitchell...

Monster game: 40/5/6 and 2 steals on 14-19 from the field, 7-9 from 3's.
Wow!

He’s my favorite non-Laker. His second 40pt game as a rookie too.

Crazy. He's supposed to be a good defender too, right? Damn what a pick.

Who would you take if you had to start a franchise: Mitchell or Booker?

looking like a good investment on my part...just had his 4th straight game with 20 or more points! It took a couple months...but the guy looks like he has turned the corner and is becoming the player I always expected.

How's he getting his points? I'll try to catch a game soon, just curious how he's been looking.

I have watched very little maybe 2 quarters, and listened to a couple quarters today on NBA radio, but in the last 4 games, he is shooting over 50% from field....over 40% from 3 on a little over 4 attempts per game...13 of 15 from the free throw line.

Josh Jackson has turned the corner...

22 Points / 7 Rebounds / 2 Assists tonight.....the only rookie that has had more 20+ point games since January 1st is Donovan Mitchell.

he is gaining on Simmons....I think if their current trajectory remains through the end of the season, it will be a toss up. Right now, it feels like I still hear more voices that give Simmons the edge....but even they ("NBA Twitter") are recognizing that Mitchell is closing the gap fast.

Man Mitchell is the real deal. Totally missed on him. Thought he was like a 10th pick or so.

if Josh Jackson is not careful, he is going to play himself onto the All Rookie 2nd Team....another big night....29 Points, 7 Rebounds, 4 Assists, 2 Steals and 2 Blocks (9 of 16 FG, 1 of 1 from 3, and 10 of 13 from the line).

He's been better over the last 2 months. Still not shooting the 3-ball well though, about 30% during that time. He's at about 70% from the FT line in that time, which is an improvement. I was never quite as high on him as you were (I recall you liked him more than Lonzo), but I definitely liked him as well, and still think he will be a good player. Put it this way, I feel like he can be, at worst, this year's version of Andrew Wiggins but with actual motor on defense. Obviously, we'll see if the shot can develop.
