Evaluating Justin Jackson's shooting range

Posted Feb 19, 2014
How strong is (2014 UNC forward commit) Justin Jackson's outside game compared to his mid-range? It's a great question because early in his career he was considered a long-range shooter. Back in December, I spoke with Jackson about this topic. To become more than just a shooter, he invested quite a bit of time into his middle game. In his backyard, he has a sport court where he perfected the floater and pull-up jumper. In fact, the 6-foot-7 Jackson has the best middle game and short game in the senior class. (ESPN.com)
