Breakdown: UNC's No. 1 ranked 2014 basketball recruiting class
Posted May 23, 2013
Justin Jackson has an evolved midrange game and a deadly floater at 6-8. He is an overall skilled offensive player in every regard. Defensively, Jackson has room for improvement in terms of strength and quickness, but he does have the length to be a disruptive defender. In general, the work that both Theo Pinson and Jackson do in the weight room will be pivotal to their development at North Carolina as wiry, slender players.
