He reminds me of Paul Pierce. Same kind of build. He seems to be moving kind of slow but then all of a sudden he is getting a shot off and has created some separation.
Don’t know if anyone else noticed but, one clip shows he is wearing number 11 then in another he is wearing mumber 10. Good player either number you wear. Just Saying.
Kid is a stud, but that being said the Lebron comparison and “best since Lebron” comments from “experts” are hysterical. Not in the same stratosphere athletically as Lebron and many since him. Nice size and has nice touch on his jumper. Seems a step slow (compared to those he’s compared to) and seems to not be an explosive athlete. I’d still love to have him, but Andrew Wiggins is better right now and it really isn’t that close. Not at all actually.
4. Haha your just seeing him reading the opponents position, same reason 5. said he looks slow. Kid is constantly evaulating the players on the court and uses the highest percentage shot.
16 Good observation. I only lasted 30 secs watching the video. Guess I’m a bit burnt-out right now with all the postings about kids that won’t make a decision until the final day, whenever that is.
I love how all these people can get on here and post about a kid who is by far the best player in his class, and was even ranked ahead of Nerlens, looking lazy or slow. I didnt get that from this video at all, hes so much better than anyone else on the court that it looks like hes going slow at times, he makes the game look so easy. I for one would love to have Jabari next season.

We are losing to UNC and Duke as the best basketball coaching position in the NCAA…

Kid reminds me a little bit of Harrison Barnes, but maybe smoother

Which I realize is not relevant one bit to this post… I’m sure the video is amazing.

Is it me or does he look soft?

not really too impressed seemed to just be barely going instead of really trying in these highlights?

He is not coming to UK and life will go on. MKG looked slow and not interested a few times I saw him on TV in HS but turned out to be fanatastic!

Cal, let “Dad Gumit” and Duke go for him he is not that impressive.

These highlights remind me of watching AD’s a thousand times after he signed – same gym in Chicago
