Player of the Year Power Rankings: Justin Jackson climbing

8. Justin Jackson, UNC: Jackson has been a model of consistency all season, particularly in ACC play.

He’s shooting the ball better than he has in his life, and he’s still utilizing a murderous floater game that’s better than anyone in the country. (NBC Sports)
