Draft 2023 | Andre Jackson Jr. maintains his registration

NBA Draft 2023 – Centerpiece of UConn’s NCAA title in the spring, Andre Jackson Jr. took the time to reflect, and seems to have obtained certainties during the Draft Combine.

Like fullback Jordan Hawkins, his “backcourt” buddy with the UConn Huskies this season, Andre Jackson Jr. embarks on the 2023 Draft after winning the NCAA title in April.

Engaged in the Draft after the quest for the title while maintaining his university eligibility for next season, the native of New York State obtained certainties during the Chicago Draft Combine, where he multiplied individual “workouts”, with Atlanta, Boston, Brooklyn, Indiana and Portland in particular, according to ESPN.

Playmaker in the NCAA without being a natural for the position, Andre Jackson Jr. (1m98, 95kg) is a “glue guy” par excellence, an offensive and defensive “playmaker”, capable of doing everything at a relatively low volume. pupil. Last season, he averaged 6.7 points, 6.2 rebounds, 4.7 assists (and even 6.8 assists during UConn’s March Madness run) and 1.1 steals. At 21, after three university seasons, he is therefore ready to turn pro, and will be a solid contributor from the start of the school year.

Guaranteed to be drafted, he should be chosen between 20th position and the end of the first round, an area in which teams at the top of the table will be delighted to bet on his “all-around” and experienced profile.
