Biggest thing to see immediately is Jackson is very, very quick off the bounce. Gets to the rim and can finish.
A needed commodity.
Semi just went to Boston
I'm just going to stop suggesting players because they always get drafted immediately after I type their name.
Yeah lol! He's what we wanted Rivers to be.So, nothing like Austin Rivers.
Yeah. It could have been my first choice Hart if it wasn't for you lol!
Warriors got Jordan Bell....

Hm...actually watching him he reminds me more of CJ McCollum.
Yeah, I see a lot of CJ in him. He is quick, and can light it up from anywhere. I hope he can play defense.
If you Jimmer it, they will come.
Well there you go. Another developmental draft pick who's only 18. Get off Dell's case. Summer league should be interesting.
Well, we had Bacon and grits for a few minutes at least.

I guess you could say we passed the bacon...
DARN IT!!!!!!
Warriors paid $3.5 million for the rights to No. 38 pick Jordan Bell

One thing I can tell you is that Dell has had his eye on him for YEARS https://t.co/RJsnBjK8sL

So with us getting Frank Jackson, do we keep Cook ?
CJ is much much shifter at the 2nd level. Jackson is a straight line driver. His first step is bananas though. And I like players who reject screens.
Cant think of a good comparison for him.

Jackson is a 2nd round pick 19 year old who just finished his freshman year of college, what do you think?
NBA Draft Combine measurements:

Frank Jackson (2017): 6'3.5" height, 6'7.5" wingspan

Because CJ has to be. And most NBA players who drive the lane need to have moves while they're in the lane too.
I think the same will be for Jackson. He has the quickness for it. And he's got a nice spin move in the lane already. Really looking forward to seeing how he develops.
Edit: Something else that folk'll like is that he just made 19 years old.
Well, saying as we only have like 3 guards under contract for next year right now, I'd say there's probably a chance of Cook making it.
Jackson is not a great defender, but he can shoot well, pass ok. Young. Fits as a project, good gamble.

Frank da Tank (like CJ) is sneaky quick. Frank had a hurt foot apparently, so that might have hampered his shiftiness. I imagine he will do well working with pro coaches and strength coaches.
