It sounds like Jalen has more work to do. The coach talks about Jalen starting at the 5:35 mark.
He's looked extremely raw/slow. It'll take some developing but needs to be more mobile to play the perimeter like he has been. Also took 0 shots in the preseason game

We already knew he was drafted to be developed in the G-League, not new information to those paying attention....
If he keeps working hard he will eventually make an impact at the NBA level...........

I agree Hoopla. Hoping slawson can carve out a role in the NBA. I’m sure he can due to his good size and defensive ability. I think the kings are a perfect fit for him. Their up tempo offense should work well for him since he runs well in transition.

Slawson may not impact the stat sheet but he will impact the game
Sunday stats: 0 points, 2 reb, 2 assists, 1 block, 1 steal. Kings played 20 players, Jalen was the only one that didn’t take a shot. They called Furman a football school!

They also questioned the work ethic of our basketball program. I don’t like that coach.

He's not the best that's for sure, probably why he has already been fired from 2 other NBA jobs already (Cavs/Lakers) :lol:

We'll see if the Stockton Kings run an up tempo offense too

My biggest question about those tweets is who runs those accounts and what is their credibility? These days anybody who wants to call themselves an analyst can create an account and say whatever they want to, living in their parent’s basement eating Cheetos.

Those tweets are not intended or presented to be the view point of analysts, merely random postings by Sacramento Kings fans about Slawson, nothing more and nothing less ;)
