Is this three game series any indication of what we are going to get from him statistically speaking? Compare his three game totals to Jefferson’s who had less minutes.

It was little more than a European Vacation. More about building relationships and developing a cohesive locker room than working out playing time and roles. Minutes were pretty evenly distributed. That won’t happen once games count.

Not sure if this is a serious question? We know JJJ and his game (pros and cons) very well at this point

You're right. I'm sure the 4 years of data on the guy is probably more indicative of his potential performance for this year than 3 games where we won handedly each time against foreign teams. He's a solid SEC player, if he could just consistently shoot well from deep he'd be a really good SEC player.

He's got every team set up for the pump fake and baseline finish

I like what I see from DJ. More PT for him please!!

 

[Stoked]

I love DJ, but I think he's still another year away. We lose Santi, Knecht, and JJJ on the wing next year. He'll see a huge increase in minutes.

What exactly does He need to show You at this particular point ?!

 

[Hbg]

Any indication of improvement would be great!!!

Shot the worst percentage on the team - what did he show in these 3 games that makes you want to take minutes away from more productive guys and give them to DJ at this time?

I think he flashed potential, has good athleticism, and he says the right things in interviews such that I’m encouraged he can become a starting caliber player if he keeps working hard. Hopefully he can get regular minutes to develop before conference play and is committed to sticking around the program

I love what JJJ brings overall both on and off the court but sure would be nice if we could get the JJJ from the last half of the '21 season where he shoots over 35% from 3

He's an enigma. Let's hope he elevates his game consistently. I don't think he will suddenly become a better get to the rim guy.

He's fine going to the rim. It's his lack of aggressiveness in finishing those drives. Looks to pass first

 

[Thunder Good-Oil]

It’s a good situation for JJJ. He won’t be expected to score plus what he’s good at complements the the roster.

I'm not sure what you're definition is of being fine getting to the rim.

I'm referring to explosion.

Triple J can give you quality minutes. As we've seen, he never takes over a game. He gets lost during the game, and the opponent knows at some point he won't be a factor. He's got the athletic ability to be better, and I hope he does in his final season in orange. I wish him well.

He doesn’t get lost on defense or rebounding. Just doesn’t go on many scoring runs.

At least till this past season. He had moments that he just completely checked out in all fazes of the game. There was a lack of engagement at times. The Missouri SEC tourny game comes to mind. I'm not sure if it was knee pain, personal problems, stress, or whatever. And then there were a few scattered games like the Auburn game. He is a wild card this year for sure.
