Justin Jackson preparing for a big third NBA season
Posted May 14, 2019
Justin Jackson has been here before. And he’s hoping history repeats. So far, Jackson’s NBA career has followed closely the path that he took through his college years at North Carolina. “Just like in college, I struggled in my first year,” Jackson said. “I got a little bit better my second year, still had some struggles. And then my third year I kind of took off a little."
