Believe it or not, no accolades.
and 1 broken hand.
my favorite Jaden blocks are when he gets pushed off his spot or beat off a dribble move but recovers a split second faster than should be humanly possible and disrupts the shot
also feels like his blocks almost always land in our guys’ hands, rarely see it sent into the stands or to a guy for an easy 2nd attempt
What about 70/70?
I love Jaden as much as the next guy but I always hate these cherry picked stats.
Obviously not among the top 10 defenders in the league with those stats
Ngl, I had no expectations for this guy coming out of Washington. I was like “who is this shy skinny looking scrub next to ANT” when I first saw him at the intro presser. Considering he had issues at Washington, it’s great to see a young guy “get it” and keep getting better every year. Just need to keep his cool better and some weight room training wouldn’t hurt.
