Jalen Johnson’s Ready For Takeoff


I wanted to share this here as I thought it was a relevant topic by taking a look at Jalen Johnson's game and how he really grew this past season. Around a month ago I made a video looking at some areas where he improved. I was also interested to hear what others thought of Jalen entering as the 24-25 season approaches. I do think there's All-Star upside down the line, and he's a great fit for the current NBA. Though I am curious to see how he'll perform as the clear 2nd option within the offense

  1. Good video! Love the choice of clips and the breadth of areas of his game you were able to cover succinctly. There’s probably a little air in JJ’s defensive numbers because our forward depth was *so bad* last season, but this is good analysis.

    My only critique is how often you referred to him as “Johnson.” Your commentary felt a little stilted because there wasn’t any variation there. A “JJ” or “Jalen,” or even calling him “the 6’9″ forward out of Duke” to break that up would have helped.

    One last random thing, I really appreciate how you don’t uptalk. The number of people on Youtube who always sound like they’re asking questions drives me nuts.
