Not feeling the same about him as you, triboy.  I like his handle, smooth, but worry about his outside shot.  Also I don't see him playing power forward in the NBA except in a small ball lineup. Too slight.

But with added weight yes? He is a top notch offensive rebounder already

I mean markief morris, thad young, terrence jones , tristant thompson, draymond green can play the pf spot

Did you see the highlights? He made four 3 pt shots

He's not a PF.  He's not listed as one at 6'8 203 and he's not projected to be one either.  Draft Express is an excellent read on prospects.

I agree. With Jackson's average wingspan, it's unlikely he can play power forward consistently. At most, he is like an MKG that can hustle, play both forward positions, and create some offense.

Again, I like Jackson, but a number one pick in this draft he is not.

A rich man's Matt Barnes he is.

You got to be kidding me

Jackson is bigger, more explosive , better passer/ball handler, versatile defender

Matt Barnes and Jae Crowder share more similirities

Jackson might be a tad undersized to be a pf but has very good size to play the sf spot

Hothead who threatened someone and kicked up their car, lacks a jumpshot. Yep...he'll fit right in.

The last thing this team needs is another guy who can't knock down threes, we take a ton of them and another Marcus Smart isn't helping us.

PLEASE no. We're already a terrible redbounding team, so let's start an undersized wing at power forward. That'll help us stop big men from dominating us week in week out.  ::)
'23 Historical Draft: Orlando Magic.

PG: Terry Porter (90-91) / Steve Francis (00-01)
SG: Joe Dumars (92-93) / Jeff Hornacek (91-92) / Jerry Stackhouse (00-01)
SF: Brandon Roy (08-09) / Walter Davis (78-79)
PF: Terry Cummings (84-85) / Paul Millsap (15-16)
C: Chris Webber (00-01) / Ralph Sampson (83-84) / Andrew Bogut (09-10)

 This was an old thread. Really he's a shooting guard. He's q great Rebounder though so you should be happy about that.
