Yeah dude is the ideal role player

Good, versatile defender and a solid 3 point shooter

Combined with his length and height, he’s gonna be a good player for a long time

ThaRealSunGod | Lakers

I wouldn’t say he “is” great just yet. He showslots of potential. But imo he’s in a similar boat to reaves in the two season before that.

Clears signs of greatness, question is if the consistency grows or remains the same.

That’s the line.

Andy_Wiggins | Timberwolves

Eh, I don’t even think he really shows signs of greatness.

Like, he averaged 17.⁵⁄₈.⁵⁄₁.8 on 39/37/77 shooting in 42 minutes per game against a pretty depleted Lakers’ squad.

He seems like he’ll be a pretty fine player. Worth his contract but unlikely to far outplay it.

And this is coming from someone who really thought Reaves showed a ton of potential 3 years ago before he signed his current contract (I argued the Spurs should sign him at his max to pair with Wemby)

ThaRealSunGod | Lakers

I think he’s showed it.

He’s kinda like an MPJ, he’s probably the second best “is he the next KD” we’ve seen since KD.

Andy_Wiggins | Timberwolves

4 | an hour ago

Woah, the “is he the next KD” thing is WILD.

Here are Jabari Smith Jr.’s 2-pt field goals in the series:

Game 1 - 2-5
Game 2 - 4-9
Game 3 - 2-6
Game 4 - 2-5
Game 5 - 2-4
Game 6 - 2-5

KD was a 3-level scorer. He could hit 3s and middies of course, but dude was an excellent driver who frequently averaged like 15 2-pt field goal attempts a game. He could handle the ball and had a filthy first step for someone that size.

Right now, Jabari Smith Jr. is effectively just a shooter and that’s it offensively. He can’t dribble. He can’t really self-create. If the 3s go down, he might get you 15 or 20. If they don’t, he’s getting like 8.

It’s not often I feel the need, or desire, to defend KD but people seem to forget that KD was up there with Bron and Kobe back in his 3rd year. Jabari is not that guy. or the second best is he that guy.

ThlammedMyPenis

Are we sure he will be a great player? I know he’s young but it’s been 4 years and it looks like he’s just a solid role player. Nothing wrong with that but let’s not strip all meaning from the word “great”. If jabari is a great player then Rui is the goat

Not yet, but he has shown improvements that could make one think he could be one day. Jabari is the same guy for 4 years now

henryofskalitzz | Supersonics

he was the only player on the Rockets this series who could shoot and defend on at least a semi consistent basis

think he would look much better if the Rockets went and got a real PG

In my view, it’s not bad to be publicly confident but statements like that are just bulletin board material for the other team.
